Commanders jump-start rebuild by trading Chase Young to the 49ers and Montez Sweat to the Bears
The Washington Commanders have traded Montez Sweat to the Chicago Bears for a 2024 second-round pick and Chase Young to the San Francisco 49ers for a third-rounder next yearOCTOBER 31, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Dealt to Chicago The Bears acquired Sweat from the Commanders on Tuesday in exchange for a 2024 second-round draft pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact Though they don't fit the mold of a typical "buyer" at the trade deadline, the 2-6 Bears had a clear need for pass-rushing help, as the team ranks dead last in the NFL with 10 sacks through the first eight weeks of the season. Sweat provides Chicago with a real threat on the edge, and though he's in the final year of his rookie deal, a strong finish to the 2023 campaign could prompt the Bears to use their franchise tag on him this offseason and/or sign him to a long-term deal. Sweat had recorded 32 tackles, 6.5 sacks and two forced fumbles through the Commanders' first eight games, putting him on pace to set career highs in all three categories.

Has another sack Week 8 Sweat had five tackles (three solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 38-31 loss to the Eagles.
Impact Sweat now has 6.5 sacks in eight games this season, which leads the Commanders' defense and is tied for eighth in the NFL. Sweat and fellow lineman Chase Young have had their names involved in trade rumors all season long, and Sunday's contest shows what each of the two youngsters have to offer for teams in need of elite pass-rushing talent. Sweat is well on his way to surpassing the career-high nine sacks he collected during the 2020 season.
