Mitch Trubisky practices in full for 2nd consecutive day, stays on track to play Sunday

CHICAGO _ Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky practiced in full for the second straight day Thursday at Halas Hall as he recovers from a right hip pointer.

Bears coach Matt Nagy, who speaks to the media before practice, said Wednesday's practice was light, and it was difficult to see how Trubisky's mechanics looked during what he described as "half-speed" work. He expected to have a better idea of Trubisky's status after Thursday's session.

"It's kind of hard to see exactly (where he's at), just because of that," Nagy said. "But I liked the way he looked. ... We want to do everything we possibly can to get him right. We'll see how today goes and then see how (Friday) goes and then see how Saturday goes."

Nagy said Trubisky said he felt pretty good, and Nagy thought that was "a step in the right direction" as the Bears gear up for Sunday's game against the Giants at Soldier Field.

Trubisky suffered the hip injury during a second-quarter sack against the Rams on Sunday night, and Nagy pulled him in favor of backup Chase Daniel with just more than three minutes to play. Daniel played most of two games this season in place of Trubisky, who missed time with a dislocated left shoulder. Daniel also started last season against the Giants when Trubisky was dealing with a right shoulder injury.

Right tackle Bobby Massie, who had a back injury against the Rams, also practiced in full.

Tight end Adam Shaheen remained out of practice with a foot injury, while inside linebacker Danny Trevathan was absent with an elbow injury. Outside linebacker Isaiah Irving, who has missed the last three games with a quad injury, was limited.
