Ranking the Bears’ position groups after they trimmed their roster to 53 players on Saturday:
1. Outside linebacker
Starters: Khalil Mack, Robert Quinn
Backups: Barkevious Mingo, James Vaughters, Trevis Gipson
There’s little doubt that a motivated Mack can be one of the best players in the game. There are questions about Quinn, though. The Bears gave him $70 million this offseason to do what Leonard Floyd couldn’t — rush the passer. But he practiced in full exactly once during training camp practices open to media — at the Soldier Field scrimmage — and has otherwise been used sparingly in team drills.
