Trubisky, who was the No. 2 pick of the Bears back in 2017, lost his starting job to Nick Foles after Week 3 last season before regaining for the final six games of the regular season and their NFC Wild Card loss to the Saints.
He went 29-21 as a starter during four seasons in Chicago, completing 64 percent of his passes for 10,609 yards, 64 touchdowns and 37 interceptions. The Bears did not extend a fifth-year option to Trubisky after the 2019 season.
Chicago replaced Trubisky when it signed Andy Dalton to a one-year deal worth $10 million.
