Michael John Vanderjagt (; born March 24, 1970) is a former gridiron football placekicker and punter who played in the National Football League (NFL) for nine seasons, primarily with the Indianapolis Colts.
He served as the Colts' placekicker from 1998 to 2005 and was a member of the Dallas Cowboys during his final NFL season in 2006.
He also played for four seasons in the Canadian Football League (CFL), where he spent three seasons with the Toronto Argonauts and one with the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Vanderjagt retired as the most accurate field goal kicker of those with at least 100 field goal attempts, making 86.5%, as of 2019 the ninth-highest career field goal percentage in NFL history.
During his CFL career, Vanderjagt won two Grey Cups and received the Dick Suderman Trophy in 1996.
His most successful NFL season was in 2003 when he became the first kicker to convert every field goal and point after touchdown during the regular season and playoffs, earning Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors in the process.
He also missed some high-profile field goal attempts in postseason games, and provoked controversy during his career with outspoken comments and antics.
