One former member of the Chicago Bears still is looking for his next opportunity.
Former Bears defensive end Yannick Ngakoue spent the 2023 campaign in Chicago but now is a free agent. Ngakoue appeared in 13 games last season with the Bears and racked up four sacks and 22 total tackles.
It's unclear where he will land, but Bleacher Report's Alex Ballentine attempted to predict his landing spot and mentioned the Kansas City Chiefs as an option.
"Yannick Ngakoue has racked up frequent flyer miles playing for five teams over the last four years," Ballentine said. "The edge-rusher has always found a home, but his uneven playing style isn't for everyone and not something that teams are willing to commit to. Ngakoue has been a productive pass-rusher throughout his career but a non-factor in the run game. At 6'2", 246 pounds, he doesn't set a firm edge, and he's only had more than 30 tackles in a season once...
"There are enough teams that could still use a pass-rush specialist out there that Ngakoue should find a home. Logical Landing Spots: Arizona Cardinals (and) Kansas City Chiefs."
Kansas City is coming off another Super Bowl-winning season and could do so again in 2024. Landing someone like Ngakoue certainly could help.
It's not a guarantee that Ngakoue won't return to the Bears, but it doesn't seem like a likely outcome at this point.
