Concludes low-volume season
Santos converted his lone field-goal attempt in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Santos posted six or fewer points in each of Chicago's last six games. In addition, the kicker recorded more than seven points in two of 17 games. Normally, Santos is one of the most accurate kickers in the NFL, but his 84 percent field-goal rate was easily the worst during his five years with the Bears. Unless Chicago is able to put together a much better offense next year, Santos may not be able to reach his potential for fantasy football. The veteran is under contract with the team through 2027.

Santos was a surprise fantasy standout in 2023, tying for second among kickers in fantasy points while converting more than 86 percent of his field-goal attempts for a fourth consecutive season. He even went seven of eight from 50-plus yards, which helped make up for a lack of PATs (31 of 33) on a mediocre Chicago team. He's still at just 60 percent from his career on 50-plus kicks, but the upward trend combined with his consistency on short field goals should keep him safe atop the depth chart. The biggest question is what happens with the volume, as the Bears offense could be much better after a busy offseason, though that won't necessarily help Santos if he's trading FGAs for PATs rather than just adding the latter.

Could have new snapper Week 18
Santos' rhythm could be disrupted in Sunday's game against the Packers, as long snapper Patrick Scales is battling a foot injury, Adam Hoge of AllCHGO.com reports.
ANALYSIS
With Scales sidelined in practice Wednesday, the Bears brought in Matt Overton. Santos and holder Trenton Gill will work with Overton during the week to try to get on the same page with their timing, but the change could affect Santos' accuracy in the season finale. The kicker has converted 32 of 35 field-goal attempts this season, and his 91.4 percent success rate is well above his career mark of 85.4 percent.
