Bears QB Mitchell Trubisky in ‘really good’ place ‘mentally’ says Matt Nagy
The Chicago Bears are a team that has been going back and forth for the last couple of years. The side is lingering there or thereabouts, flirting with title contention in the NFC. Chicago has talent on both sides of the football. Although the main concern has been offensively at the quarterback position.

As of right now, there is an open competition for the starting job in Chicago. Nagy has made that abundantly clear. As if the trade for the one-time Super Bowl champion didn’t already signal the potential change.
