It’s been an interesting offseason for the Chicago Bears so far, which has included an uninspired free agency and the losses of some players who have been mainstays on the roster over the last few years.
Perhaps the most surprising departure was star pass rusher Khalil Mack, who the Bears traded to the Los Angeles Chargers ahead of free agency. Chicago got a 2022 second-round pick and a 2023 sixth-round pick in return.
Mack’s departure is a huge loss for Matt Eberflus’ defense. But Eberflus does believe that the move will be beneficial in the long run.
