Baltimore Ravens Kaare Vedvick knows he isn't going to win the kicking job and the only way he is going to make a roster is if the team trades him to another team that needs a kicker. All the way back in March, Ravens coach John Harbaugh said he hoped Vedvik would do enough during the preseason so the Ravens could trade him.

“Kick well enough for us to trade him. That's kind of, I would say, the goal,” Harbaugh said.

Vedvick impressed in his first preseason game, going 4-of-4 including one from 55 yards. He also impressed with the two punts he attempted. After the game, Vedvick said that he is just working on his game and he isn't worried about who the team might trade him to.

“I don't really ever think about that,” Vedvik said, via per Jamison Hensley of ESPN. “I'm focused on playing the game. That's it. Teams that are interested, they talk to coach, the head honcho. I'm just going to play the game.”

Last season Vedvick almost had a job in the NFL but was assaulted in September and it cost him a chance at a job. This season he knows he is kicking for more, and he was happy to be back on the field on Friday.

“It was a different emotional load to it, given everything that happened,” Vedvik said. “It was something I've always done for fun, but this time it had deeper importance to it. I had to prove something to myself.”

With a few more impressive showings, he will have a job in the NFL this year, the big question is where.
