"One of the great outside linebackers in league history, Mack, who won the Defensive Player of the Year award in 2016, had contemplated retiring after the 2024 season but opted to return to the Los Angeles Chargers for the 12th season of his career."
"In the four weeks without Mack, L.A. allowed 579 yards rushing, the sixth most in the NFL. Since he returned in Week 7, until Week 18, when most Chargers starters sat out, L.A. allowed the fourth-fewest rushing yards (1,046)."
Nine-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Khalil Mack agreed to a one-year contract worth $18 million with the Los Angeles Chargers, returning for his 13th NFL season. The 35-year-old defensive standout had considered retiring after the 2024 season but chose to continue his career with Los Angeles. Despite an elbow injury that sidelined him for four games, Mack remained impactful on the Chargers' defense. When Mack was absent, the team allowed 579 rushing yards in four weeks. Upon his return through Week 18, the Chargers allowed the fourth-fewest rushing yards in the NFL. Mack, a 2016 Defensive Player of the Year, has accumulated 113 career sacks since being drafted fourth overall by the Raiders in 2014.
