K Adam Vinatieri may wear the Patriots' franchise tag this offseason.

Vinatieri would get a 20-percent raise if New England slaps him with the tag because he's the highest paid player at the kicker position. Otherwise, he'd get to test the market.

It will cost the Pats $3 million to franchise him. They have more holes this year then before; so it might be interesting to see what they decide to let go.
