Bears | Lots of Kicking Competition

Larry Mayer, of ChicagoBears.com, reports with the recent signing of PK Doug Brien, the Chicago Bears will likely have five place kickers in training camp competing for the job. Brien will join incumbent PK Paul Edinger, who missed an NFL-high nine field goal attempts last season, and undrafted agent PKs Tyler Jones and Nick Novak. PK Nick Setta, allocated by the Bears to NFL Europe, may also gain a training camp invitation. Though kickoff distance will be a factor in the competition, the Bears will be looking for the kicker who can best convert field goal attempt.
