With the 2020 NFL Draft in the books, the Chicago Bears turned their attention to undrafted free agency, where they welcomed several rookies to their 90-man roster.
One of those undrafted rookies was Buffalo edge rusher Ladarius Mack. That’s right, the Bears got Khalil Mack’s younger brother.
While Ledarius isn’t at the level that his big bro is, he did have a knack for getting after the quarterback during his time at the University of Buffalo. In 2019, Mack had 24 tackles, including 11 tackles for loss, eight sacks, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
“Khalil’s brother, that’s definitely something we’re looking forward to,” coach Matt Nagy told reporters. “It worked out for us.”
The Bears are currently set at pass rusher with Khalil Mack and Robert Quinn leading the charge, along with depth from newly-minted fifth-round draft pick Trevis Gipson and free-agent acquisition Barkevious Mingo.
Little Mack certainly faces an uphill battle to make the 53-man roster, but if he impresses during camp, he could certainly earn a place on the practice squad.
Suddenly, preseason just got a whole lot more interesting. Who could pass up the chance to get both Mack brothers on the field at the same time?
Take a look at what the Bears can expect from Ledarius Mack:
