Availability
Khalil Mack has agreed to a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Chargers. Mack, who has been with the Bolts since 2022, will enter his 13th season in 2026.
Fantasy Impact
Mack appeared in 12 games in his 12th NFL season last year, but still finished with 32 tackles, six tackles for a loss, and 5.5 sacks. He also forced four fumbles and is the career leader among active players with 36. Mack has 113 career sacks - seventh among active players and 28th all-time. One thing to watch is the fact that he played a career-low 60% of defensive snaps last season and has seen a decline in each of the last four seasons. However, Mack is still a force on the edge and can still be fantasy relevant for leagues that include IDPs.
Khalil Mack has decided to return to the NFL for a 13th season in 2026. He will forego retirement, explore all options, and should be a big name in free agency this offseason.
Fantasy Impact
Mack is coming off a solid 2025 season with the Chargers that saw him finish with 32 tackles, 5.5 sacks, and six tackles for a loss in 12 games. The nine-time Pro Bowl selection and six-time All-Pro honoree, Mack has played in 179 career games with the Raiders, Bears, and Chargers. He has totaled 113 sacks in his career, finishing with double digits in five of his 12 seasons. Mack will be a priority for the Chargers this offseason to keep him in Los Angeles for at least another year.
Chargers linebacker Khalil Mack did not practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Mack likely missed Wednesday's session due to rest ahead of a Week 15 matchup with the Cowboys. The veteran has racked up six sacks and 15 solo tackles in 10 games this season.
Khalil Mack (elbow) is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts.
Fantasy Impact
Mack will be available to make his return to the lineup in the near future, but it is unclear whether or not that will come on Sunday. Los Angeles' defense will look a lot stronger than usual if the veteran edge is cleared to play in this matchup.
Khalil Mack (elbow) logged a limited practice session on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Mack was limited in Los Angeles' practice for a second-straight day on Thursday. He's still working his way back from an elbow injury that landed him on injured reserve, and it's unclear whether or not the team plans on him playing this week. His return will be a nice boost to the Chargers' front seven whenever it comes.
