Ryan Pace’s first big signing as the general manager of the Chicago Bears was edge rusher Pernell McPhee. He had been criminally underused with the Baltimore Ravens, and was just coming off of a 7.5-sack season.
That move ended up working out incredibly well for the Bears.
McPhee has been a huge factor on and off of the field. He has put up 10 sacks in 23 games, as well as 69 total tackles. He has been named a captain in his two seasons with the team, and will likely hold that honor again this year.
