Don’t be that person that burns Mitchell Trubisky jerseys

It’s one thing to be unhappy with the performance of a player, but it’s another thing to start burning their jersey.

It’s safe to say that Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky isn’t the most liked player in Chicago right now. Considering the colossal disappointment of a season he had in 2019, where he regressed rather than progressed in his third year, the criticism is certainly warranted.

There’s been no shortage of fans or media that have taken jabs at Trubisky’s performance. But one fan took it to extremes when he posted a video of him burning his Trubisky jersey over an open fire with the caption “Nick Foles SZN.”

Look, it’s one thing to be unhappy with the performance of a player. Lord knows most Bears fans were beyond frustrated with Trubisky’s performance in 2019, especially given the weekly reminders that the Bears drafted him over Patrick Mahomes and Deshaun Watson.

But it’s another thing to start burning jerseys. Not only could there be a better way to handle getting rid of a jersey — say, like donating it to a kid that would love it — but it doesn’t look well as a fan.

While there are many fans that are hoping Nick Foles ends up winning the starting quarterback job, they wouldn’t necessarily be mad if Trubisky ended up proving them wrong and winning the job and playing like the player Ryan Pace thought he’d be.
