Bears Rumors: Mitchell Trubisky Had Shoulder Surgery on Labrum Injury

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky underwent surgery to repair aย partially torn labrum in his non-throwing shoulder following the season, per ESPN's Jeff Dickerson.ย 

The procedure was describedย as "minor" and should have a recovery time of a couple of months.

Trubisky dealt with aย shoulder injuryย throughout the season and battled aย hip injury,ย though he only missed one game.

The third-year playmaker was expected to build on 2018's Pro Bowl and NFC North-winning effort, but he and the Bears finished 8-8.

The North Carolina product completed 63.2ย percent of his passes for 3,138ย yards, 17ย touchdowns and 10ย interceptions and didn't look the part of the franchise quarterback the Bears surely envisioned he'd be when they traded up to select him with the No. 2 overall pick of the 2017 NFL draft.

Chicago turned to Chase Daniel earlier this season when Trubisky was sidelined and could do so again if the injury extends into training camp.
