2. His press conference had some Mike Glennon vibes
While I was happy to hear Trubisky has a fire under him with Foles coming to town, I did have a brief flashback to 2017 when quarterback Mike Glennon, the Bears “prized” free agent acquisition, spoke after the team drafted Trubisky. “This is my year,” Glennon stated, confidently believing that 2017 squad was his team. And it was – for just four games. Flash forward three years and Trubisky said something similar. “I still feel like this is my team,” he said.
Perhaps I’m reading too much into his answers but that statement feels like the kiss of death at this point. Head coach Matt Nagy did say Trubisky will get the first crack at the job and he has been working with numerous teammates over the last few weeks. But there’s something about that quote that doesn’t sit well with me.
Trubisky: "I still feel like this is my team."
