QB update

Rookie Mitch Trubisky had a chance to march the Bears to victory in a two- minute drill Sunday. It was the final drill of the Bears’ last opentothe- public practice at Olivet Nazarene University.

Trubisky, who took more snaps than usual because

Mark Sanchez sat out with a bruised ankle, completed a short pass to Daniel Brown. He then went deep down the right sideline to Tanner Gentry to get into the red zone, then found Brown over the middle for a ‘‘ score.’’

On a two- point conversion, Trubisky scored after a little razzle- dazzle.

‘‘ He did have a successful scoring drive in two- minute,’’ coach John Fox said. ‘‘ We got down there pretty close with the first unit; that was against the first unit. But we just continue to evaluate practice— not just games, but the whole practice— and [ Trubisky] is continuing to get better.’’
