Lake Forest, Ill.— The Bears are down to three kickers on the roster. Three kickers may still sound extravagant, but keep in mind Chicago tested eight at rookie minicamp the first weekend in May. Eight kickers.That’s more than would fit into a minivan comfortably, enough for two golf foursomes, or a large boy band or enough to stage a murder mystery party.
Safeties coach Sean Desai doesn’t think he’s ever seen that many kickers under one roof.
“When I coached in college we might have had that many on our roster, when you have 150 guys,” he said.
