If you saw Matt Nagy consoling Mitch Trubisky on the sideline Sunday night, you were probably wondering what the Bears head coach was saying to his quarterback. Lip-reading was out because Nagy was talking behind a play-call sheet to shield the viewing audience from the pair’s fourth-quarter conversation.
Nagy later said he told Trubisky that the QB’s tight right hip was making him an ineffective passer against the Rams and because of it, he was taking him out of the game. A day later, he would say that Trubisky had suffered a hip pointer in the first half.
