This came out today. Good read. Good attitude for Mitch. I may be in the minority but I am not writing this guy off. I do feel good about picking up Foles too. Surely one of these two will be solid this season for the Bears. I'm hoping it's Trubisky, but if not then we still have Foles.

Why ‘pissed off’ Mitchell Trubisky is a great thing for the Bears
Mitchell Trubisky is pissed. Good.
In an offseason that hasn’t featured a single team practice in over five months, the Bears’ plan to challenge their former No. 2 overall pick appears to be working.
Trubisky’s response to the Bears trading for Nick Foles?
"It was kind of interesting to me. That's the business that we're in. I think I was pissed off in a good way. I've been motivated ever since."
His response to not having his fifth-year option picked up?
“It wasn’t really a big surprise to me, because I kind of felt like I had it coming. I put myself in their shoes … and I feel like the way I played last year didn’t merit that.”
And Trubisky’s plan now?
“Just to go out there and earn my next contract, wherever that is. I want it to be here in Chicago. I’m going to play my heart and soul out for this team and give it everything I’ve got … I think it’s just more fuel to the fire to me, more motivation that I could have done more to get extended.”
For a guy who tends to cling to clichés and deflect criticism, Trubisky said a whole lot Friday in his first conversation with reporters since the 2019 season ended. He came off as incredibly self-aware and brutally honest.
