The San Francisco 49ers moved on from kicker Phil Dawson signing long time Bear Robbie Gould to a two year contract. In the process, Gould reunites himself with several people from his past. 49ers new special teams coordinator Richard Hightower was a key influence in bringing the kicker west, special teams assistant Stan Kwan was the first coach to work out Gould coming out of college and Senior Personnel Executive Martin Mayhew was Director of Football Operations in New York in 2016.
Gould spoke at length with the media about his career, why he and the Bears parted ways and kicking in 55 mph winds.
