Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky is good to go for Sunday’s matchup against the New York Giants.
Less than a week after suffering a hip pointer in a loss to the Los Angeles Rams, Trubisky put in a full week of practice, including Friday, with no limitations, and he’s good to start for Sunday’s game.
Bears coach Matt Nagy said earlier this week if Trubisky was cleared to play that he’d “absolutely” be the starter against the Giants.
Trubisky has struggled mightily this season, where he ranks last in the leagye in passing yards per game (175.6), last in yards per attempt (5.6) and tied for 26th in pass TDs (9), among 33 quarterbacks.
Since Week 8, the Bears are averaging 14.3 points per game, which is second to last in the NFL during that time.
Trubisky has put together back-to-back solid performances against the Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams before suffering a hip injury. And going up against a Giants defense that has been terrible this season, Trubisky is hoping to make it a third.

Meanwhile, tight end Adam Shaheen (foot) and linebacker Danny Trevathan (elbow) have been ruled out.
