Bears K Gould signs four-year extension

The Chicago Bears signed kicker Robbie Gould to a four-year contract extension, the team announced Friday.

Terms of the contract were not released, but ProFootballTalk.com reported that it is a four-year, $15 million deal, with $9 million in guaranteed money.

Gould is completing his ninth year with the team and the extension will keep him in a Bears uniform through the 2017 season.

Gould has made 86 percent of his field goal attempts over his nine-year career. That makes him the most accurate kicker in Bears history and ranks third all-time in the NFL.

He has made 89.7 percent of his kicks this year (26-for-29).
