VIDEO: Mitchell Trubisky Embarrassingly Fumbles After Bumping into Bears Offensive Lineman
By Karl Rasmussen
Mitchell Trubisky has done little to inspire confidence on the field this year, and his woes continued in Week 8 against the Chargers. Early in the fourth quarter, Trubisky took a snap out of shotgun, and while dropping back to throw, he collided with an offensive lineman. Trubisky somehow managed to fumble the ball after bumping into his teammate and taking a few stumbling steps, and Chargers LB Melvin Ingram was able to dive on the loose ball.

Yikes. Bears fans aren't going to forget about this disaster any time soon.
Trubisky's inability to hold onto the football allowed the Chargers to take a lead after they drove down the field for a score on the ensuing possession. Some truly sloppy play from the former No. 2 overall pick, and this one is pretty difficult to explain away.
