Bears name QB Mitch Trubisky the starter — but for how long?

Matt Nagy spilled the worst-kept secret in the Chicago area Friday when he named Mitch Trubisky the Bears’ starting quarterback. But he wouldn’t answer the more compelling follow-up: whether or not the change lasts beyond Sunday’s Packers game.

Nick Foles, who didn’t practice all week because of the right hip injury he suffered against the Vikings, will travel with the team to Lambeau Field but is doubtful to play. Tyler Bray would then serve as the second-stringer.

There’s no questioning the opportunity Sunday’s game presents for both Trubisky and the coach hired to mentor the former No.
