Bears pursue pass rusher as Chargers deny trade for Khalil Mack
Summary

The Chicago Bears are seeking to bolster their defense with a pass rusher ahead of the November 10 trade deadline. Despite interest in Khalil Mack, the Los Angeles Chargers have no intention of trading him, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Bears general manager Ryan Poles has already acquired All-Pro Jeffery Simmons but aims for additional defensive help. The Bears could consider other options, such as Arizona’s Josh Sweat.
