Is Ryan Poles Seeking One More Haymaker Before The Deadline? Why It Looks That Way

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles is reportedly inquiring about New Orleans Saints defensive end Chase Young following Chicago's acquisition of Jeffery Simmons. According to a report from social media account After the Whistle Sports, the Bears are exploring a potential trade for the 27-year-old pass rusher ahead of the NFL trade deadline.

Writer Erik Lambert notes that Young has recorded seven sacks in seven games this season and has two years remaining on his contract. However, Lambert argues that completing a deal will be difficult because New Orleans will likely demand at least a second-round draft pick, leaving Chicago with limited trade assets after surrendering two first-round picks for Simmons.
