The Chicago Bears traded up on Thursday to snag Mitch Trubisky, and as Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports, Mike Glennon was in the dark about that decision just like everybody else. Glennon was actually at the Bears’ draft party when the pick was made, which might have been just a little bit awkward all around.
Campbell reports that the decision damaged the trust between Glennon and Chicago GM Ryan Pace, with Glennon left feeling like he got “cheated on.” Which I can understand since he was given no advance warning about the whole drafting-your-future-replacement thing.
