Bears general manager Ryan Pace was noncommittal about quarterback Mitch Trubisky’s 2021 option and left the door open for competition, but said “to be clear” Trubisky’s in the starter.
Trubisky, whom Pace drafted No. 2 overall in 2017, is coming off a dreadful season in which he finished 28th in passer rating. His numbers dropped across the board, and he finished with 17 touchdowns, 10 interceptions, a 63.2 completion percentage and an average of 209.2 yards per game.
Trubisky played most of the season with an injured non-throwing shoulder and had surgery last month. Pace said he will be “good to go” for Organized Team Activities and minicamp, and “full go” for training camp.
