Best to leave all options open on game day. You want to make room for 2 kickers, cut all the punters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Claude Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 The Bears have already announced that they intend to keep two kickers. https://www.chicagobears.com/news/bears-intend-to-keep-two-kickers-this-season Of course, I don't think anyone has ever kept two punters.

They haven't decided if they'll both be on the 53 or one will be on the PS though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not that unusual then but to announce it this early would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 With the expanded ps and ability to keep more vets on the ps this will be a chess match. I agree with others the bills will not keep two punters on the 53. Edwards maybe a ps candidate. Two kickers is possible. I think bass will get scooped up by someone if you waive him. So I so t think ps is an option there. Haushka will also get scooped if they waive him. So the move may be to keep a different vet on the ps that otherwise would not be active.

TheFunPolice Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Since you can protect a handful of guys on the practice squad, it makes sense to put Bass there and protect him every week. If your kicker tests positive for COVID the night before a game and you don't have a guy you're screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locomark Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Funny that the exact day that The coach gets asked about keeping multiple specialists is the day they cut back to 1 punter and 1 kicker.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
