Bears QB Mitchell Trubisky up for FedEx Air Player of the Week following Thanksgiving win

Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky has been nominated for FedEx Air Player of the Week following his impressive performance in a 24-20 comeback win over the Lions on Thanksgiving.

Trubisky completed 29-of-38 passes for 338 yards with three touchdowns and one interception for a passer rating of 118.1.

But most impressive was how Trubisky led his team back from a 10-point deficit, including leading them down the field on what was a nine-play, 90-yard game-winning drive. He came up clutch with two third down conversions of 35 and 32 yards to Anthony Miller that set-up a 3-yard touchdown pass to David Montgomery.

Also nominated for FedEx Air Player of the Week include Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (27/39, 365 yards, 3 TDs) and Rams quarterback Jared Goff (32/43, 424 yards, 2 TDs).
