REPORT: Chicago Bears allow top defender with 10 sacks in last two seasons to explore trade options.

The Chicago Bears have permitted defensive end Trevis Gipson to explore trade options. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Gipson, who recorded 10 sacks in the last two seasons, is seeking a defensive system that better suits his skills. With notable stats since 2021, including 18 quarterback hits and five forced fumbles, Gipson has proven his worth.

The 26-year-old thrived in a 3-4 defensive scheme in 2021 and hopes to return to a similar setup. Drafted in 2020, Gipson shone under former DC Sean Desai, but faced challenges when Alan Williams altered the defense in 2022. Another team might soon capitalize on his 3-4 proficiency.
