The Bears signed Plascencia as an undrafted free agent Friday, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports. Plascencia made 87.8 percent of his field-goal attempts (36-for-41) in his last three seasons at San Diego State. The kicker was 19-for-23 in 2025 and was likely brought in to keep long-time Bears kicker Cairo Santos on his game ahead of the season. Santos' track record of consistency means his job is likely not in danger, and there is a good chance Plascencia will either move on from the Bears or shift to the practice squad by the start of the regular season.
