Williams is entering his second campaign in the NFL. The young play caller is getting some advice from another NFL quarterback, Mitchell Trubisky.</p><p>Trubisky is the backup for the Buffalo Bills, after formerly playing for the Bears. He is sharing his perspective to Williams, on <a href="https://bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/bears/2025/08/16/bears-mitch-trubisky-advice-for-caleb-williams/85681455007/" rel="noopener">what it means</a> to play for the Bears.</p><p>“All eyes are on you in this city,” Trubisky said, per USA Today. “It’s really a privilege and there’s a lot of pressure that comes with that … I miss that and it’s a lot of fun to be the franchise guy especially in a city like this. I would just say to have fun with it and enjoy the process.”</p><p>Trubisky made the comments on Friday, as <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-news-watch-caleb-williams-josh-allen-link-up-at-bears-bills-practice">the Bears and Bills shared a joint practice</a>. Trubisky then went a step further with his comments. He also hopes that Williams finds time to enjoy the experience of leading the team. The Bills quarterback said he wishes he had appreciated his journey a bit more, when he was in Chicago.</p><p>“Not regret but I think just perspective now that I’m older,” Trubisky said.</p><p>Trubisky certainly knows what he is talking about. He led Chicago to NFC Playoff appearances in 2018 and 2020, losing both times in the Wild Card round. Trubisky had a Pro Bowl season in 2018, throwing for 3,223 yards and 24 touchdowns.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/editorials/2024-nfl-draft-grading-caleb-williams-landing-spot">Williams was the no. 1 overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft</a>. He finished his rookie season with 20 touchdown passes, and six interceptions. The quarterback threw for 3,541 passing yards.</p><p>Chicago won just five games in Williams’ rookie season, and finished last in the NFC North.</p><h2><b>Bears are hoping for an outstanding season</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Caleb-Williams-Bears-i.jpg"><figcaption>Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/bears-news-ben-johnson-calls-out-sloppy-caleb-williams-offense">Williams is leaned on to lead the Bears offense</a>. Chicago also has a new head coach working with Williams this season, in Ben Johnson. Johnson replaces Matt Eberflus, who had a rough go of it in Chicago.</p><p>Williams says <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25239263-caleb-williams-says-bears-hc-ben-johnson-has-been-tough-me-and-its-been-great" rel="noopener">he is enjoying</a> playing for Johnson.</p><p>“He’s been tough on me,” Williams said Sunday during ESPN’s SportsCenter, and reported by Bleacher Report. “He’s been hard on me, and it’s been great. Getting coached like that and being pushed, the whole team seeing me being pushed like that. He set the standard. It’s our job to level out and be at that standard.”</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/bears-news-caleb-williams-ben-johnson-playbook">Williams has set goals for himself this season</a>, including throwing for 4,000 passing yards. It certainly seems that the Bears season hinges on how well Williams leads his offense.</p><p>The Bears play a preseason game against the Bills on Sunday night. Chicago’s regular season begins on September 8, with a matchup against the Minnesota Vikings.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He went through quarterback drills, completed touchdown throws, and chatted with former teammates and staff members. While the return was nostalgic, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/chicago-bears/bears-rumors-mitchell-trubisky-could-start-packers">Trubisky said it also carried a sense of unfinished business</a>.</p><p>“It’s a privilege and I miss that, and it’s a lot of fun to be the franchise guy, especially in a city like this,” Trubisky said.</p><p>Now in his ninth NFL season, Trubisky is competing for the backup role behind Josh Allen. He has experience in Buffalo, first serving as Allen’s understudy in 2021, and rejoined the team last offseason on a two-year deal after a stint with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bills general manager Brandon Beane praised Trubisky’s reliability and said the team remains confident in him if Allen were to miss time.</p><h2><b>Mitchell Trubisky’s Bears tenure was a roller coaster</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Trubisky-2.jpg"><figcaption>Quinn Harris-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Trubisky’s tenure with the Bears ended after the 2020 season. His brightest stretch came in 2018 when Chicago went 12-4 and won the NFC North, though inconsistency and offensive struggles followed. Since then, the Bears have drafted two more first-round quarterbacks, including Caleb Williams, who is now under the spotlight Trubisky once carried.</p><p>Despite the turnover in Chicago, Trubisky said the city remains special. He greeted fans, reminisced about playoff runs, and acknowledged how much it still means to him to play at Soldier Field, where the Bills will face the Bears in an upcoming preseason matchup.</p><p>For now, Trubisky remains focused on his daily work with Buffalo while keeping his bigger dream alive.</p><p>“That’s tough sometimes, I think, cause you always want to stay in the moment and take it day by day, but, I mean, the long-term goal is definitely to be a starter and a franchise guy somewhere again,” Trubisky said. “I think if you have that mindset and strive for that, but also take it one day at a time, everything else will kind of take care of itself in the meantime.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Steelers will have a new face under center next season as Kenny Pickett is gone, and Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/steelers-news-owner-reacts-to-pittsburgh-hosting-2026-nfl-draft">now with the Steelers</a>. Wilson is coming over from the Denver Broncos and Fields is coming from the Chicago Bears. Both players didn’t meet expectations with their former teams, but they are getting another <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/steelers-best-rookie-sleeper-to-make-impact-2024-nfl-season">chance with the Steelers</a>.</p><p>It’s unclear who the starting QB will be for the Steelers next season as Russell Wilson and Justin Fields will battle it out for the starting job, but most people think that Wilson will win it. Patrick Peterson is one of those people that thinks it will be Wilson.</p><p>Patrick Peterson played for the Steelers last year, but he was released by the team a couple of months ago. When the Steelers signed Wilson, he texted Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin, and he took a shot at the past QBs that the Steelers had.</p><p>“I even texted [Mike Tomlin] <a href="https://www.behindthesteelcurtain.com/pittsburgh-steelers-news/2024/5/22/24162862/patrick-peterson-says-steelers-finally-have-reliable-quarterback-russell-wilson-kenny-pickett" rel="noopener">right after they signed</a> Russell [Wilson],” Peterson said, according to an article from <i>Behind The Steel Curtain</i>. “I said, ‘Now you finally got you a quarterback that has credibility. A guy who’s going to be in the lineup that you can count on. Being in the lineup week in and week out. Now [it] is going to be putting the right pieces around him.’ They have the pieces for Russell to be successful.”</p><p>Peterson seemed to take a shot at Kenny Pickett and Mitch Trubisky with that comment. It’s no secret that the QB position was one that the Steelers struggled with, and Peterson was happy to see that they had someone new coming in. Wilson is certainly the favorite to be the starter next year in Pittsburgh, but Fields is going to give it his all in the QB battle.</p><h2><b>Russell Wilson vs. Justin Fields</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Justin-Fields-and-Russell-Wilson.jpg"><figcaption>© Jamie Sabau-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are both coming to the Steelers with a lot to prove. Things didn’t work out for Wilson with the Broncos, and things didn’t work out in Chicago for Fields. However, the edge that Wilson has over Fields is that he has shown that he can be a top QB in the NFL. When Wilson was in Seattle, he was one of the best QBs in the game, and that’s why it was such a shock to see things go down hill for him in Denver. Still, that level of play is still in there, and Wilson needs to find it.</p><p>Fields on the other hand hasn’t really proven anything in his NFL career yet. The Bears wanted to build their team around him and they wanted him to be their franchise QB, but things just didn’t pan out. They had the opportunity to draft a generational talent in Caleb Williams in this year’s draft, and they took advantage of the opportunity. Fields was a stud in college, but he has yet to show that skill at the pro level.</p><p>It seems like Russell Wilson will likely end up winning this starting job, but you never know. Both him and Justin Fields are capable guys with a lot of talent, so we’ll see who can rise to the occasion.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, as they take on the Jaguars, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/steelers-news-tj-watts-kenny-pickett-declaration-bright-future-pittsburgh-qb" rel="noopener">Pickett suffered a worrying injury</a> that sent him to the sidelines.</p><p>Just before halftime, Pickett suffered a ribs injury and was <a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1718696661742981384" rel="noopener">removed from the game</a>, via Adam Schefter of ESPN. He was replaced by backup Mitch Trubisky. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/steelers-news-kenny-pickett-gets-major-terry-bradshaw-endorsement-after-victory-over-rams" rel="noopener">Pickett was evaluated</a> at halftime and was <a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1718704049199911195" rel="noopener">ultimately ruled out</a>, via Schefter.</p><p>Before going down with his injury, Pickett had completed 10-of-16 passes for 73 scoreless yards.

While Pickett was <a href="https://twitter.com/SteelersPRBurt/status/1718701666461979099" rel="noopener">originally deemed ready</a> to return, the team quickly ruled him out before taking the field in the second half. Now, the Steelers will be forced to turn to Trubisky at QB for the remainder of the contest.</p><p>The Steelers – who sit at 4-2 on the season – are looking to up their playoff standing with a victory. However, Pickett’s worrying injury would have Pittsburgh’s outlook much bleaker should he have to miss multiple games.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The quarterback <a href="https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/steelers/2023/06/08/pittsburgh-steelers-allen-robinson-mitchell-trubisky-kenny-pickett/stories/202306080100" rel="noopener">thinks they can</a>, according to Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.</p><p>“Absolutely,” Trubisky said as the Steelers go through OTAs, via the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. “You see him getting a little better, a little healthier each day.

After starting last season as the starter, he will come into this one as a reserve.</p><p>Trubisky said it was an <a href="https://triblive.com/sports/signing-contract-extension-with-steelers-an-easy-decision-for-backup-qb-mitch-trubisky/" rel="noopener">“easy decision” to sign an extension</a> with the Steelers, according to Joe Rutter of TribLIVE. The deal lessens his cap hit and made the 28-year-old quarterback happy. He is fully aware of his status as a backup and is simply just looking to be the best version of himself.</p><p>“You have to compartmentalize,” the Steelers quarterback said, via TribLIVE. “I come here and know my role, but I’m also competing and trying to be the best player I can be. When you push for that and you continue to compete and push yourself to get better, things are going to work out…If I come here with a great attitude and work my tail off, then everything will work out the way it should. Honestly, I feel I got rewarded with an extension. Not many guys can say they’ve been around six or seven years like I have now. That’s a blessing in itself.”</p><p>Mitchell Trubisky is rewriting the story of his career with his realization that a backup role suits him. After failing as a starter, he knows that there is a large chasm separating him from stardom. Rather than stubbornly try to carve his own path there with another team whose quarterback situation is uncertain, the former second overall pick is at peace with being a backup and is finding comfort with the Steelers.</p><p>The Steelers may be looking to build around young QB Kenny Pickett but having an experienced quarterback back him up can only help him. This is especially the case for someone who cares about the team and knows what his role will be. Pittsburgh is eager to develop Pickett into their franchise guy but it won’t be a straightforward development.

The deal is <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/37680285/source-steelers-mitch-trubisky-finalizing-two-year-extension" rel="noopener">reportedly for two years</a>, with Trubisky set to make $8 million guaranteed during the first season, per ESPN’s Brooke Pryor and Jeremy Fowler.</p><p>Kenny Pickett is considered the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/expect-him-to-kill-it-steelers-hc-mike-tomlins-firm-expectations-for-kenny-pickett-in-2023" rel="noopener">Steelers’ QB of the future</a>. He took over starting duties in 2022 and although he didn’t set the league on fire, Pickett displayed signs of promise. Trubisky, despite losing his grip on the stating role, is still viewed as a key piece to the roster. His veteran prowess is important for Pittsburgh in helping with Pickett’s development. Additionally, he is a capable option if needed to play in 2023.</p><p>Trubisky has been in the league since 2017, breaking into the NFL with the Chicago Bears. He remained in Chicago through the 2020 campaign before joining the Buffalo Bills in 2021. After just one season in Buffalo, Pickett became the Steelers starting quarterback in 2022. He ultimately appeared in seven total games with Pittsburgh, throwing for 1,252 yards to go along with four passing touchdowns.</p><p>Trubisky’s numbers don’t jump off the page by any means, but he’s still in a good situation. The Steelers are on the verge of contending once again, and Trubisky is set to earn an impressive salary for a backup quarterback. He would surely prefer to start, but this is a quality scenario for a backup.</p><p>The Steelers will be an intriguing team to follow in 2023-24. They’ve made a number of impactful roster moves and could make a playoff run during the upcoming season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Trubisky is expected to be the backup quarterback to Kenny Pickett in the 2023 season. He is viewed as a reliable backup and good locker room presence, according to Pryor.</p><p>The extension makes sense, because Trubisky’s cap hit was set to be $10 million in 2023. An extension would likely lower that number and give Omar Khan and the Steelers more cap flexibility for the season. It is a <a href="https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1659259142391963649" rel="noopener">two-year extension</a> that lowers the cap hit, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.</p><p>Trubisky has been in the NFL since 2017, when he was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the first round of the NFL Draft. The Bears had success in the 2018 season, making the playoffs with Trubisky under center. He was let go after four seasons, then signed with the Buffalo Bills to be the backup to Josh Allen. Then Trubisky signed with the Steelers ahead of the 2022 season.</p><p>The Steelers are ultimately hoping that Kenny Pickett becomes their franchise quarterback. If it does not work out with Pickett, they have Trubisky and Mason Rudolph in the quarterback room. The team just re-signed <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/steelers-news-mason-rudolph-free-agent-quarterback" rel="noopener">Mason Rudolph</a> to a one-year contract on Wednesday. It will be interesting to see whether the Steelers carry three quarterbacks into the regular season, or they opt to go with two to give them an extra roster spot for other positions.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

While <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/kenny-pickett-gets-murky-week-15-injury-update-after-concussion">Kenny Pickett remains in the concussion protocol</a>, the team will be going with the veteran Trubisky over Mason Rudolph for Week 15, per Ian Rapoport. That’s not entirely surprising, given that the former Chicago Bears QB was clearly better than his competitor for the sport.</p><p>“The #Steelers are expected to start QB Mitch Trubisky vs. the Panthers on Sunday, sources say, with coach Mike Tomlin going back to signal-caller who has served as their backup all season. Kenny Pickett (doubtful) is still in the concussion protocol.”</p><p>Kenny Pickett suffered a brutal concussion during their Week 14 game against the Baltimore Ravens. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/steelers-news-kenny-pickett-replaced-by-mitch-trubisky-after-suffering-head-injury-vs-ravens">Trubisky filled in</a> for the injured Pickett in that game. Unfortunately, he was not able to lead the Steelers to victory against their hated rivals. Pittsburgh is hoping that Mitch Trubisky holds his own against the Carolina Panthers this week.</p><p>The Steelers season has gone the way most people expected it to go before the year started. After the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger, many figured that this team would finally start a much-needed rebuild. They have already traded Chase Claypool to the Chicago Bears earlier this season. Barring a sudden burst of greatness (and some luck, if we’re being honest), this season is likely going to be Mike Tomlin’s first losing campaign.</p><p>As for Kenny Pickett, the rookie has shown flashes of his capabilities throughout his starts. However, he’s not able to carry this Steelers team to new heights. It will be interesting to see how Pickett develops over the coming years.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
