Bears sign Cairo Santos to replace Connor Barth
The Chicago Bears signed kicker Cairo Santos, formerly of the Kansas City Chiefs, to replace Connor Barth.
What It Means:
Santos was placed on Injured Reserve by the Chiefs and then released a few days later after he aggravated a groin injury in a Week 3 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Barth was released a day after missing a 46-yard game-tying field goal at the end of regulation in a 27-24 loss to the Detroit Lions.
Santos has made 22-of-28 (80.7 percent) field goals and 125-of-130 (96.2 percent) extra points in his career.
