NFL insider Ian Rapoport has doubled down on speculation that the Chicago Bears could trade edge rusher Khalil Mack, linking the possibility to the recent contract extension signed by Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons.
Rapoport's comments suggest the Simmons deal may have set a market benchmark that influences the Bears' thinking regarding Mack's future. The Bears have not publicly indicated a desire to move the former Defensive Player of the Year.
