6. K Ramiz Ahmed
The Bears will have a kicker competition for the second straight training camp, although this one doesn’t carry the same weight as last season. Chicago brought in former Nevada kicker Ramiz Ahmed to battle Eddy Pineiro for the starting kicker job, and it’ll certainly be interesting to see how this battle plays out. During his senior season, Ahmed connected on 15-of-20 field goals (75%).
While Ahmed does have experience winning a kicker competition during his time at Nevada, the job feels like Pineiro’s to lose. And without a preseason to get some live-game reps in, barring a shocking turn of events, Ahmed’s time in Chicago will come to an end before it really begins.
