John Fox praises Mitchell Trubisky after first start: 'He's got what it takes'

Posted Oct 10, 2017
Mitchell Trubisky made the first start of his NFL career on Monday night, completing 12 of 25 passes for 128 yards, a touchdown and an interception in a 20-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. All things considered, it was a solid if unspectacular debut for the No. 2 overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, who didn't exactly shine but also got little help from his receivers. (CBS Sports)
