Mitch Trubisky got off social media to improve his mental health

Posted Jan 6, 2019
Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky hasn’t used social media all season, and he thinks that’s part of why he got better in 2018. Trubisky says that when he struggled as a rookie in 2017, he’d sometimes look on Twitter and see negative comments that would wear on him and take his focus away from getting better. Getting off social media has put him in a better mental place. (NBC Sports)
