Trubisky appears likely to start against the Lions in Week 13, Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Matt Nagy didn't officially name Trubisky his starter while speaking to the media Monday, but Adam Jahns of The Athletic agrees that the 2017 No. 2 overall pick looks set to get another chance under center. Trubisky threw 242 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions against the Packers during Sunday night's 41-25 divisional loss, but much of that production was racked up with the game well out of hand. Should Nick Foles (hip) make substantial progress in his recovery this week, it could make Nagy's decision to determine a starter more complicated.

Trubisky completed 26 of 46 passes for 242 yards and three touchdowns along with two interceptions in Chicago's 41-25 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Trubisky and the Bears quickly fell behind in this contest, but once the game was out of hand, he was able to pile up significant production while the defense was no longer playing aggressively. Should he continue to function as a starting quarterback, he'll be considered a low-upside fantasy option.

Matt Nagy confirmed Trubisky will start Sunday's game against Green Bay, but the coach wouldn't commit to a starting QB beyond Week 12, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nick Foles (hip) is listed as doubtful, and it sounds like he'll be the backup even if he's active. A Week 11 bye gave Trubisky's right shoulder some time to heal, and he's now set for his first start since September after logging full practices Wednesday through Friday. It's anyone's guess what happens beyond Sunday, as neither QB has played well for the Bears.

Trubisky is expected to start Sunday's game against the Packers, as fellow QB Nick Foles (hip) is doubtful for the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Foles was absent from practice throughout the week, while Trubisky (shoulder) was a full participant each day. Barring a last-second miracle in Foles' recovery, Trubisky will make his first start since Week 3.

Trubisky (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Trubisky handled all the first-team quarterback reps at practice, while Nick Foles (hip) was sidelined for the team's first session coming off a Week 11 bye. Coach Matt Nagy hasn't yet named a starting quarterback for Week 12, but if only one of those options is fully healthy, that decision could make itself. At this time, the Bears are still viewing Foles as day-to-day, according to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, so Trubisky can't yet be considered a lock to start Sunday in Green Bay.

Trubisky (shoulder) is expected to be available for Sunday's game against the Packers, but the Bears have yet to decide whether he or Nick Foles (hip) will be the team's starting quarterback Week 12, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Matt Nagy is expected to speak to the media later Wednesday, at which point some clarity on the Bears' muddled quarterback situation heading into the Week 12 matchup should arrive. Rapoport relays that Foles -- who has started the team's past seven games -- would likely remain atop the depth chart if deemed healthy, but Foles may still be feeling the effects of the hip pointer he sustained in the Bears' Nov. 16 loss to the Vikings prior to a Week 11 bye. At the very least, Trubisky looks like he should unseat Tyler Bray as the Bears' No. 2 quarterback after he missed the team's final two games before the bye week with a right shoulder injury.

Coach Matt Nagy said Monday that he's not yet ready to name Trubisky (shoulder) or Nick Foles (hip) the starter for Sunday's game against the Packers, Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trubisky has been sidelined since Week 8 due to a lingering shoulder injury, but Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports that the 2017 first-round pick is present for Monday's practice while Foles is absent. The Bears reportedly consider Foles day-to-day due to a potential hip pointer sustained Nov. 16 versus Minnesota. It appears that a substantive update on Chicago's quarterback situation won't arrive until Wednesday's practice at the earliest, but the Week 12 starting gig could simply go to whomever of Trubisky or Foles is healthiest.

Coach Matt Nagy may consider a QB change in the wake of Nick Foles (hip/glute) getting injured during Monday's loss to the Vikings, Stacey Dales of NFL Network reports. "Everything's on the table," Nagy said.
EDGE Analysis
The Bears don't believe Foles' injury is as bad as initially thought, and Nagy considers the quarterback to be day-to-day as the team enters its bye week. During the respite from playing, Nagy intends to look into the situation at QB to determine who is best suited to start Sunday, Nov. 29 in Green Bay. Trubisky has missed the last two games due to an unspecified right shoulder injury, but if he gains clearance to play before Foles, there seems to be a chance Nagy will turn to the fourth-year signal-caller.

Trubisky (shoulder) will not play in Monday's matchup against the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
Chicago has a Week 11 bye, so Trubisky will have an extra week to recover before the Bears' next game. With Nick Foles being the only healthy quarterback on the roster, look for the team to make another move prior to Monday's game.

Trubisky (shoulder) did not practice Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The Bears have a Monday night matchup against the Vikings on deck, so Trubisky will get the benefit of an extra day to get healthy, but at this time it looks as though he's trending toward another absence. Chicago will go on bye Week 11, so it seems likely that the team will hold Trubisky at least until then in order to guarantee that his shoulder heals without setbacks.
