Mitchell Trubisky: Bears teammates won't let him play without arm sleeve

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky isn't going to mess with success.

And his Bears' teammates won't let him, either.

Trubisky confirmed on Wednesday that - for the second straight game -- he intends to wear a compression sleeve on his right throwing arm when the Bears (3-1) face the Miami Dolphins (3-2) on Sunday.

The last time Trubisky wore the sleeve, the second-year quarterback passed for a career-best six touchdown passes in Chicago's 48-10 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sept. 30.

Trubisky explained the origin of the arm sleeve before Wednesday's practice.
