Mitch Trubisky impressing Bears coaches, teammates with 'it' factor

Posted Sep 9, 2017

"Really no reaction at all," Trubisky insisted Friday at Halas Hall. "It was just get ready for this week and help my teammates prepare for this game." Certainly Trubisky at least gave a fist pump at some point. Or even a smile. (Chicago Tribune)
