Colts

Adam Vinatieri celebrated one major milestone Sunday by becoming the NFL’s career field goal leader. The 23-year veteran made the record-breaking 566th field goal with 2 seconds left in the first half and No. 567 on a 44-yarder in overtime to give the Indianapol­is Colts a 34-31 lead before watching Ka’imi Fairbairn make two more field goals to give Houston a 37-34 victory.
