The Chicago Bears choosing Mitchell Trubisky over Patrick Mahomes and Deshaun Watson — and trading up to do so — remains one of the biggest misses in recent draft history. It’s a mistake that GM Ryan Pace won’t soon live down, and recent comments from Watson won’t help the situation.
Responding to a thread about how race may have played a factor in Chicago taking Trubisky over Mahomes and Watson, the Houston Texans quarterback said on Twitter that the Bears “never once” talked to him.
The Bears decided not to pick up the option on Trubisky.
