In terms of his career, his 66 field goals made are second all time in school history and he's hit a 55-yarder, which is tied for second-longest in school history.

Fry started his career in coaching but signed a deal with the Orlando Apollos, where he went a perfect 14-for-14 in eight games and signed a free agent deal with the Bears before training camp started.

After getting cut, he signed his deal with the Ravens and will start competing for a roster spot. The Ravens have an all-pro kicker in Justin Tucker, who's one of the best kickers in the league, on the roster.
