Chargers' Khalil Mack: Records 1.5 sacks vs. Las Vegas
Khalil Mack finished Sunday's 22-10 win over the Raiders with three tackles (one solo), including 1.5 sacks, along with one pass defended and one fumble recovery.Mack combined with Morgan Fox on a 12-yard sack on Gardner Minshew in the second quarter, and Mack tallied a solo four-yard sack early in the fourth frame. Minshew made an unforced fumble late in the second quarter, which Mack scooped and returned for 22 yards to set up a 25-yard field goal from Cameron Dicker four plays later. Mack is coming off a career-best 17.0 sacks across 17 regular-season games in 2023, and the 2014 first-round pick will look to add to his impressive resume against Bryce Young and the Panthers in Week 2.

Chargers' Khalil Mack: Staying put on restructured deal
Khalil Mack has agreed to a restructured contract that will keep him with the Los Angeles Chargers in 2024, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Los Angeles was considering moving Mack after a 17.0-sack 2023 season to free up cap space, but a restructure proved sufficient to create enough wiggle room after the Chargers saved $20 million against the cap Wednesday by releasing Mike Williams (knee). Mack's prolific production in 2023 suggests that the 2016 NFL DPOY still has plenty left in the tank heading into his age-33 campaign.

Chargers' Khalil Mack: Vintage season in Los Angeles
Khalil Mack compiled 74 tackles (57 solo), 17 sacks, 10 passes defensed and five forced fumbles over 17 games with the Los Angeles Chargers in 2023.Despite losing pass-rushing partner Joey Bosa (foot) for nearly half of the season, Mack put together arguably the best campaign of his entire career, and one that probably should have elicited some All-Pro consideration. The veteran's 17 sacks surpassed his previous career high set back in 2015, and that massive figure came off the heels of a four-year stretch where Mack combined to take down the quarterback just 31.5 times. The eye-popping sack total is a bit of a mirage considering the 32-year-old had five games with multiple sacks -- including six against the Raiders in Week 4 -- and nine without one, but it's clear he's still one of the top pass rushers in the league, despite his advanced age. In 2024, Mack will be entering the final season of his six-year extension at an untenable $38 million cap hit, and with the Chargers facing a difficult cap situation, it's possible the team could move on from him this offseason in a cost-cutting measure.

Chargers' Khalil Mack: Manages another multi-sack game
Khalil Mack recorded six tackles (four solo) including two sacks and a pass defensed in Sunday's 20-10 loss versus the Ravens.Mack's two-sack performance in Week 12 was his third such game in the last four weeks and perhaps the most impressive of the bunch considering how difficult it is to catch and bring down Lamar Jackson. Mack already has 13.0 sacks with six games left to play, making him a must-start IDP in leagues where he's eligible as a defensive lineman.
