(670 The Score) The Bears are losing their longest-tenured player to the rival Packers, as punter Pat O'Donnell set to sign with Green Bay, NFL Media first reported Thursday morning.

O'Donnell, 31, had been with the Bears since he was selected in the sixth round back in the 2014 NFL Draft. He attempted 564 punts over 128 games for Chicago.

O'Donnell averaged 46.2 yards per punt last season, the second-best mark of his career.

The Bears signed punter Ryan Winslow as a free agent in February, adding a potential replacement for O'Donnell. The team re-signed long snapper Patrick Scales on a one-year deal Wednesday. Kicker Cairo Santos also remains under contract.

Scales is now the Bears' longest-tenured player, having been on the roster since 2015.
