Chicago Bears Trade Deadline Rumors on Khalil Mack and Tyson Bagent
The Khalil Mack to the Bears rumor won’t go away, but now there’s another rumor making the rounds.
On Sunday Night Football's pregame show, Mike Florio stated that the Baltimore Ravens, who recently lost their two top quarterbacks, may be looking for a backup quarterback ahead of the NFL's trade deadline. He mentioned the Chicago Bears and their backup, Tyson Bagent. The Ravens are currently 4-4 and still in contention in the competitive AFC North.
With their starting quarterbacks Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley dealing with injuries, they have been relying on rookie undrafted free agent Joe Fagnano, who recently completed only 10 of 21 passes in a recent game. According to multiple high-ranking NFL personnel executives, the Ravens have already reached out to the Bears about Bagent, despite the Bears not wanting to trade him.
The Bears have been receiving trade offers for Bagent, but are not obligated to trade him as they believe he can be a valuable backup for their current quarterback, Ben Johnson. Another rumor circulating is that the Bears may still be looking to trade defensive end Khalil Mack, who recently had a season-low 35 snaps played. Despite his limited playing time, Mack has still managed to accumulate 21 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, and 3 sacks in seven games.
When asked about the trade rumors, Mack stated that he needs to focus on staying grounded and not getting caught up in the outside noise. The Chicago Bears are set to play against the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football, and the NFL trade deadline is scheduled for November 10.
