Jim McMahon on Bears’ Mitch Trubisky: ‘If he plays hard and wins, they’ll love him forever’
Posted Jun 10, 2019
Bears GM Ryan Pace told Mitch Trubisky to pick a restaurant and make a reservation. Pace wanted his dinner with the then-UNC quarterback in March 2017 to stay under the radar. When Trubisky booked a table at Bin 54, a steakhouse in Chapel Hill, he used an alias: James McMahon. ‘‘The last Super Bowl[-winning] quarterback of the Chicago Bears,’’ Trubisky said.
