Khalil Mack is set to become a free agent for the first time in his 11-year career
. Whether the Los Angeles Chargers linebacker decides to test the waters, though, is not the first thought on his mind. Mack said Sunday that he is considering retirement but will take his time before making a final decision. 'It's a lot of different thoughts in my head right now. I can't really speak on a definitive decision on what I'm going to do,' Mack said as the Chargers cleaned out their lockers after a 32-12 loss to Houston in an AFC wild-card round game.
He was the 2016 Defensive Player of the Year before being traded to the Chicago Bears the week before the 2018 season after he and the Raiders could not agree on a contract extension. Mack signed a six-year deal with the Bears that kicked in with the 2019 season before being dealt to the Chargers in 2022. 'I told myself a while ago that 10 years would be good. I fooled myself again,' Mack said. 'Hoped I had a championship at the end, but things happen that you don't plan for.
