Mitchell Trubisky Embraces Role Backing Up Bears Starting QB Mike Glennon

Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Mitchell Trubisky is prepared to support Mike Glennon, the team's expected starter under center, heading into the 2017 NFL season.

Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk passed along comments the second overall pick made about the situation Friday during an appearance on SiriusXM NFL Radio.

"Mike's a great dude," Trubisky said. "He's an absolute pro. We've got a great quarterback room with him, Mark Sanchez and Connor Shaw. So we've all been helping each other compete and getting better every day. But Mike's the starter, and I'm behind him all the way.
