We have punter news. The Bears have spoken to Bengals free agent Kevin Huber, a source tells Mike Garafolo of NFL.com (on Twitter).
The Bears’ own punter, Pat O’Donnell, is a pending free agent. It’s unclear whether O’Donnell is still in their plans, or if they are just safeguarding themselves in the event of O’Donnell’s departure.
Huber has been the Bengals’ punter ever since entering the league in 2009. In 2014, he earned his first and only Pro Bowl selection. Last year, he set a new career watermark with 46.6 yards per boot.
Interesting tidbit, Pat O’Donnell replaced Huber at the University of Cincinnati when Huber graduated.
Pat O’Donnell played at the “U”.
pat o’donnell played at cincy and then transferred to the U
Correct he was a graduate transfer to the U.
Wrong.
