Bears' Fox: 'We will evaluate everything,' including QB situation

Could Mitchell Trubisky's NFL debut be imminent?

Chicago Bears head coach John Fox indicated after Thursday's loss to the Green Bay Packers - during which Mike Glennon tossed his fourth and fifth interceptions of the season and lost two fumbles - that the team would be evaluating "everything," including its quarterback position.

"We need to make a lot of changes," Fox said, according to Jeff Dickerson of ESPN. "We will evaluate everything, and we've got a lot of work to do before we line up against Minnesota on (Oct. 9). We are going to look at everything."

The Bears have resisted putting Trubisky - the second overall pick in the 2017 draft - on the field, despite him impressing during preseason.

"Again, Mitch is a young player, four regular-season games into his rookie season in his NFL career," Fox said. "Like I said, we have a big gap here (in terms of Trubisky's experience versus Glennon's). We will look at everything and everybody, not just the quarterback position."

Chicago signed Glennon to a lucrative contract in the offseason, and despite the early struggles, Fox continues to support his quarterback.

"I don't think all of those were Mike's turnovers," Fox said. "Again, there are a lot of people out there that are involved. We had dropped balls. We had penalties. There was plenty of stuff to pass around."

The Bears now have a week and a half to make a decision on who starts behind center the next time they step onto the field.
