ESPN's Bill Barnwell named Chargers veteran edge rusher Khalil Mack as one of the players in the NFL with the most pressure entering 2026.
Mack was among three other veteran players at the tail end of their careers who were named as facing the most pressure.
The other two veterans named in ESPN's list are Steelers' Cameron Heyward and Saints' Cameron Jordan.
Mack is set to enter his 13th season in the league and his fifth in Los Angeles.
Mack said winning a Super Bowl is one of the main reasons he's still playing despite contemplating retirement.
Mack has fallen short of winning a Super Bowl in each of his 12 NFL seasons and hasn't even gotten a taste of what a playoff win feels like.
The Chargers have gone without a postseason win since 2018 despite making the playoffs in three of the last four seasons.
