The Vikings will not be making a move with Blair Walsh after watching several other kickers work out for them, the Star Tribune has confirmed.

Free agents Kai Forbath, Aldrick Rosas and Randy Bullock were among the legs the Vikings tried out after Walsh, the fifth-year pro, missed two kicks and botched a kickoff at the end of an overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Patience has been tested after Walsh's 27-yard miss that knocked the Vikings out of the playoffs last season. Walsh has missed four of his 16 field goal attempts this year for a 75 percent conversion rate that ranks 24th in the league. Walsh is also tied for a league-worst three missed extra point attempts, including one that bounced off the right upright on Sunday.
ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported the Vikings' initial plans after the workouts.
