Return of Khalil Mack strengthens an already powerful Bears defense

CHICAGO -- The Khalil Mack recovery plan worked close to perfection.

Following a two-week hiatus to rest his injured right ankle, Mack returned with a vengeance, recording two of the Chicago Bears' six sacks in a victory over the Detroit Lions.

For Mack, it was the 11th multi-sack performance of his career.

“It’s cool, man, but I’m happier we came out and got the win. That’s what it’s all about,” Mack said.

Mack probably doesn’t play that way on Sunday had he opted to push through the ankle injury he originally suffered in Miami on Oct.
