It sounds like Khalil Mack's time with the Oakland Raiders is coming to an end. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Raiders have come to an agreement to trade Mack to the Chicago Bears.
Earlier today, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport essentially confirmed the reports. He tweeted that, "Before the end of the day, the Bears are expected to negotiate a long-term deal with Khalil Mack."
Mack was expected to be a free agent following the 2018 season as he skipped over training camp and the preseason to bag a new contract. The 2014 fifth overall draft pick and 2016's Defensive Player of the Year is expected to shift back to outside linebacker while playing for the Bears.
