CHICAGO -- The Bears?have released kicker?Robbie Gould, who missed two extra-point attempts in the teams preseason finale at Cleveland.The team announced Goulds release late Sunday.Gould, 34, is the Bears all-time franchise leader in career points (1,207), field goals made (276) and career field goals of 50 yards or more (23).The longest-tenured player on the Bears roster, Gould is the ninth-most-accurate kicker in league history. He also owns the NFLs third-best field goal percentage from 50 yards or longer.With no other kickers listed on the Bears depth chart, it was uncertain how they would proceed at the position entering Sundays opener at Houston.Gould took to Twitter to thank the fans and organization.Gould, who entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the New England Patriots, was named All-Pro in 2006, helping the Bears on their march to Super Bowl XLI with a game-winning field goal in overtime in the NFC divisional playoffs against Seattle. Gould has 12 game-winning kicks over his 11-year career.However, Gould suffered through a frustrating 2015 season. Although he connected on 33-of-39 field goals attempts (84.6 percent) in 2015, Gould hit a bumpy stretch late in the year when he went a combined 2-for-5 in gut-wrenching losses to San Francisco and Washington.Determined to bounce back, Gould embarked on a new training and nutritional regimen in the offseason and reported to camp at a heavier weight after he gained muscle mass. While Gould went 5-for-6 on field goals in the preseason, he failed to convert two PATs in the Bears preseason finale at Cleveland.Gould was scheduled to earn a $3 million base salary in 2016, part of the lucrative four-year extension he signed in 2013. He already collected a $500,000 roster bonus on the first day of the league year.Information from ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter was used in this report. Benoit Costil Jersey .

They will make the trip back to Pakistan together. Misbah had only briefly taken the field during New Zealands chase, and is scheduled to leave the country on Sunday evening.His departure is a significant blow to Pakistan. Apart from having led the team in 50 Tests, Misbah has been a middle-order rock, never averaging less than 40 across the six most recent calendar years.Misbahs been exceptional throughout the years and welll miss him definitely, Azhar said following the loss in the first Test at Hagley Oval.dddddddddddd We have to cope with that now and whoever comes into the side will take that opportunity and give us runs, as well as the stability he gives us in the middle.No replacement has yet been named to the squad, but Misbahs place in the XI is likely to be filled by either Mohammad Rizwan or Sharjeel Khan, who are the extra batsmen with the squad in New Zealand.Misbah had previously missed only one Test since he was appointed captain in 2010: he was unavailable for a 2012 Test in Galle, due to a suspension for slow over-rates. He had made scores of 31 and 13 in the Christchurch Test. ' ' '
