5. OLB Khalil Mack
No one was more disappointed in Khalil Mack’s 2019 performance than Mack himself. While Mack was far from bad, his production took a dip in a season where Chicago’s pass rush struggled. He had a career-low 47 tackles and his 8.5 sacks and 14 quarterback hits were his lowest since his rookie season.
But Mack is certainly poised for a bounce-back year in 2020, especially with the return of Akiem Hicks and the free-agent addition of edge rusher Robert Quinn, who replaces Leonard Floyd. While Quinn should take advantage of those one-on-one opportunities opposite Mack, Quinn also knows how to get after the quarterback, which will only benefit Mack.
