The vibes coming from Bears quarterbacks Mitch Trubisky and Nick Foles as they head into a pivotal competition couldn’t be more different.
Foles popped onto a Zoom call Friday afternoon exuding calmness and seemed almost carefree as he talked about gunning for the job but being content with however it turned out. At this stage of his career, he’s confident in who he is and what he can do.
Trubisky arrived at training camp feeling far more pressure. He has yet to find a groove as he enters his fourth season, and he’s still searching for consistency that seems to have eluded him dating back to college, when he held North Carolina’s starting job just one season and went 8-5.
