Bears rookie QB Mitchell Trubisky kept composure on national stage

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago Bears rookie Mitchell Trubisky answered an important question Monday night.

No, the moment never got too big for him.

Sure, Trubisky has plenty of corrections to make after the Bears' 20-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, but the first-year quarterback didn’t wilt under the national spotlight.

And the Chicago locker room took notice.

Even after Trubisky threw a costly fourth-quarter interception, Bears wide receiver Kendall Wright said the rookie kept it together.

“[Trubisky] was calm. He was cool,” Wright said.
