The Chicago Bears and Los Angeles Chargers have agreed to trade six-time Pro Bowl linebacker Khalil Mack to L.A. In return, the Bears receive the 48th overall pick in April’s draft and a 2023 sixth-round selection. Mack, who played under current Chargers coach Brandon Staley in Chicago from 2017-2018, is under contract through the 2024 season. He is due $30.2 million in 2022.
The 31-year-old Mack will return to the AFC West after spending the past four seasons in Chicago. Mack played the first four seasons of his career with the Oakland Raiders.
In four seasons with the Bears, Mack racked up 36 sacks, 14 forced fumbles and six fumble recoveries. He was off to a fast start in 2021 with six sacks in seven games, but a foot injury cut his season short.
