What happened: Marcus Davenport decided to retire after asking for his release following his final game Sunday. The former UTSA pass-rusher entered the league as a Saints first-round selection.

Why it matters: New Orleans paid a premium to move up for Davenport when Sean Payton was head coach. Injuries limited his availability and kept that early promise unfulfilled.

What to watch: Chicago moves forward without him on the edge rotation. New Orleans continues with its current pass-rush group.
