Everywhere he went, Bears fans reminded general manager Ryan Poles that he needed to sign a defensive end.
He fills a huge need for this Bears' roster, which recorded a league-worst 20 sacks last season and made only one significant addition in signing defensive end DeMarcus Walker. Walker, though, has never recorded more than seven sacks in a season. "Yannick's going to bring leadership, energy and his pass rush here, which is going to help our defense and help our team get better," Poles said."Also, the ability to help our young guys learn that craft and the skillset to be able to get home and be consistent and dependable."
Ngakoue was at Halas Hall on Friday, but is expected to miss the next day or two of practice. He headed back home to get things in order before making the move to Chicago. He's expected back by Sunday or Monday.
