Ranking
Montez led the Commanders in sacks and is eighth in the NFL with 6.5 sacks this season.
Extension
There was talk this weekend that the Bears were interested in trading for Commanders defensive end Chase Young, but it will be a different player going from Washington to Chicago on Tuesday.
According to multiple reports, the Bears have agreed to a trade that will land them defensive end Montez Sweat. They will send a 2024 second-round pick to Washington in exchange for Sweat.
Sweat is in the final year of his rookie contract and the Bears have enough cap space in 2024 that they could pursue a contract extension. One could imagine this being the plan given the compensation the Commanders are sending, but the Bears sent a second-round pick to the Steelers for wide receiver Chase Claypool and already transferred him to Miami for very little return. Has been done.
