Edge rusher Khalil Mack was set to become a free agent this week, but he never made it to the open market. The Chargers and Mack agreed to a one-year deal that will keep the veteran edge rusher in Los Angeles for a fourth season.

Khalil Mack will remain with the Los Angeles Chargers after agreeing to a one-year deal on Monday. Mack’s $18 million salary for the 2025 season will be fully guaranteed according to two people familiar with the negotiations.

After the Los Angeles Chargers lost to the Houston Texans in the first round of the playoffs, there were major question about Khalil Mack’s future with the team. He’s still posting solid production, but he’s aging rapidly, and the Chargers had so many other free agents they needed to retain.
