The San Francisco 49ers have plenty of familiarity with Vic Fangio and the Chicago Bears defense, but this weekend’s matchup brings a particularly familiar name, edge rusher Khalil Mack.
At the end of training camp, the Bears swung a deal with the Oakland Raiders to acquire Mack. They sent over first-round picks in 2019 and 2020, a third-round pick in 2020, and a sixth-round pick in 2019 to acquire Mack, a 2020 second round pick, and a conditional fifth-round pick in 2020. Mack had been holding out for a new contract, and upon completing the trade, he signed a six-year, $141 million deal.
