Cairo Santos

The Bears have an ascendant offense under second-year head coach Ben Johnson, giving Bears kicker Cairo Santos some fantasy appeal for 2026. Santos tied for 15th among kickers in fantasy points per game last season with 8.8. The 34-year-old kicker's field goal accuracy has waned in recent years. Santos converted 91.1 of his FG attempts over a four-year span from 2020 to 2023, but he's hit just 83.6% of his field goals over the last two seasons. Fantasy managers should also consider that Santos plays his home games in Chicago's Soldier Field, where weather often becomes a factor late in the season.

Cairo Santos did not attempt a field goal or an extra point in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Lions.

Fantasy Impact

It was the only time all season that Santos was kept scoreless as the Bears went for two on both of their touchdowns. Santos went 25-of-30 on field goal attempts and 39-of-39 on point after tries during the regular season.
