Bears Have 'Open Competition' Between Nick Foles, Mitchell Trubisky

Bears general manager Ryan Pace said Chicago has an "open competition," between Mitchell Trubisky and Nick Foles for the starting quarterback spot in 2020.

“We’ve talked to both players,” Pace said on Friday, per the Chicago Sun-Times' Patrick Finley. “The way we view this is, it’s an open competition.”

Chicago traded a fourth-round pick to Jacksonville to acquire Foles on March 18. The Super Bowl LII MVP went 0–4 in just four starts last season, throwing for 736 yards and three touchdowns. Foles was benched for rookie Gardner Minshew on Dec.
