The Jaguars traded Gipson on Monday in exchange for draft pick compensation.
Gipson had just arrived in Jacksonville after the 2023 season, but he's now already headed to join forces with the Seahawks. With fellow edge rusher Uchenna Nwosu (knee) now expected to miss at least the early portion of the regular season, there's a chance Gipson could play a rotational role during the first couple games of the new year.

Rotowire
The Bears waived Gipson on Tuesday, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.
Gipson requested a trade Saturday after seeing his role diminish during training camp. Unable to find a trade partner, the Bears opted to let go of Gipson, who will look for opportunities elsewhere should he clear waivers.

Rotowire
The Bears have given Gipson permission to seek a trade, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Gipson saw his production decrease for the Bears in 2022, as he was in a nearly equal timeshare with Al-Quadin Muhammad. He is looking at a similar role in the upcoming season and would prefer to find a defense with a 3-4 system. It is unclear what his market value will be or how quickly a trade will be completed.

Bears' Trevis Gipson: Expected to start at defensive end
Rotowire
Gipson is likely to start across from Robert Quinn at defensive end, Alyssa Barbieri of USA Today reports.
Although the Bears also have newcomer Al-Quadin Muhammad and rookie Dominique Robinson set to rotate in along the defensive line frequently, Gipson currently projects to lead the defensive ends in snaps along with Quinn. Coming off a seven-sack performance as a second-year player last season, Gipson will likely have the most IDP value in leagues that award weighted points for sacks.
