The Chicago Bears have signed kicker Robbie Gould to a five-year contract extension worth $15.5 million.

The deal includes a more than $4 million signing bonus and makes him the highest paid kicker in the NFL.

Gould said that he is excited to be a Bear and is excited about the contract that he signed.

He was an undrafted free agent coming out of college, and believes his success story is a great model for other undrafted players looking to make it in the NFL.
