The Chicago Bears are working on keeping together their kickers.

Yesterday, news came of standout placekicker Cairo Santos getting a three-year extension.

Now on Friday, the Bears announced that they have re-signed their punter Pat O'Donnell to a one-year deal.

O'Donnell ranked third in the league with 28 punts down inside the 20-yard line.

On the punting length, he averaged 45.7 yards per punt which ranked 20th in the league.

In 2014, he was drafted in the sixth round out of Miami.
