Mitchell Trubisky – Noteworthy – Injury
QB Mitchell Trubisky’s availability is in jeopardy for the team’s Thanksgiving Day game against the host Detroit Lions. Coach Matt Nagy said on Tuesday that Trubisky is day-to-day with a right shoulder injury. The 24-year-old Trubisky sustained the injury following a late hit by safety Harrison Smith during the fourth quarter of Sunday night’s 25-20 win over the Minnesota Vikings. “I’m staying cautiously optimistic, but I can’t make any promises,” Nagy said. “I hope he does. … He wants to play, I know that. We’ve got to make sure in these situations we’re doing the right thing.”
