Chicago Bears: Ranking edge rushing duos in NFC North
By Usayd Koshul
2. Danielle Hunter and Yannick Ngakoue
It seems like Danielle Hunter has been in the NFL forever. But get this: He’s just 25 years old and entering his sixth season. He’s also got 54.5 sacks and has double-digit sacks in three of his first five seasons.
Ngakoue, on the other hand, is entering year five, is a former third-round pick who’s got 37.5 sacks. Recently traded from the Jacksonville Jaguars to the Vikings, Ngakoue is entering the prime of his career.

Few pass rushing duos in the NFL have as much potential as Hunter and Ngakoue do. The two are clearly ready to dominate the NFC for the next few years. Another thing that’s very clear is that the Vikings didn’t sacrifice draft capital for Ngakoue to be here for just one year. Next offseason, they will try and resign him to a long-term deal that will keep him in Minnesota for the foreseeable future.
