LAKE FOREST, Ill. – In the last two days, new Bears quarterback Nick Foles has looked more like the adequate NFL starter he’s proven to be to be in this league.
Mitch Trubisky, meanwhile, has yet to show the type of significant improvement necessary to retain the “QB1” label he’s held since Week 5 of the 2017 season. He hasn’t looked bad, but he also hasn’t seized the competition either.
The Bears officially have six practices remaining before they enter their Week 1 game week prep for the Detroit Lions. The team announced Wednesday they will practice at Soldier Field Saturday - - originally the day they were supposed to play the San Francisco 49ers in their third preseason game.
