Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky will sit out Thursday's game against the Detroit Lions due to a shoulder injury, meaning Chase Daniel will start in his place.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Thursday that Trubisky's injury is only expected to be a one-week issue and that the quarterback would have had a "fairly good chance" of playing had the Bears not been on a short week:
