Quarterback Mitchell Trubisky spoke to the media for the first time in 2020 — and he may have had a subtle message in the background for his critics.
It was subtle, but very likely purposeful. When Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky met with the media via Zoom on Friday, it was the first time he had commented publicly on a great number of things, from the Bears trading for veteran QB Nick Foles, to the team declining to pick up his fifth-year option. Trubisky came out fiery, saying he has a new-found motivation to leave it all on the field. “It was kind of interesting to me. That’s the business we’re in. I think I was pissed off in a good way. I’ve been motivated ever since,” Trubisky said about the Bears’ trade for Foles.
Trubisky noted that he was excited for the upcoming QB competition, and said he’s glad to have Foles’ voice in the quarterbacks room — but he’s not going to act like this isn’t still his team, because he feels as though it absolutely is. “I know we’re gonna push each other, but I feel like this is still my team,” Trubisky declared.
