Chicago Bears see kicker traded to division rival

When the Chicago Bears preseason game was going on, some fans were concerned about a kicking competition breaking out in Baltimore. The Ravens have Justin Tucker, an elite NFL kicker, but Kaare Vedvik is a young up and coming talent waiting behind him.

Vedvik put on a performance in the preseason that had GMs interested. At least four teams called the Ravens about Vedvik including multiple NFC North teams. With the Bears likely included in a bidding war, the kicker wound up going for a fifth-round pick!

Trade: Ravens are sending kicker Kaare Vedvik to Minnesota in exchange for a 2020 5th-round draft pick, per league source.
