Special Teams

2019 | 2020 |
Pat O’Donnell | Pat O’Donnell |
Patrick Scales | Patrick Scales |
Eddy Pineiro | Eddy Pineiro |
Elliott Fry | Ramiz Ahmed |
Remember when Chicago’s biggest concern last offseason was who would win the starting kicker job? Eddy Pineiro ultimately won the starting job over Elliott Fry after a back-and-forth battle in training camp and preseason. While Pineiro had a rough patch in the middle of the season — including an atrocious outing against the Los Angeles Chargers — he had a solid rookie season.
Heading into 2020, not much has changed other than the Bears adding another kicker in Ramiz Ahmed, who will serve as competition for Pineiro. Ultimately, the expectation is that Chicago’s special teams will look identical to last year’s group at kicker with Pineiro, punter with Pat O’Donnell and long snapper with Patrick Scales.
Advantage: Draw
