Chicago Bears coach Matt Nagy insisted that he wasn't the one who told Mitchell Trubisky to not talk about the Green Bay Packers game.
Earlier this week when Trubisky was asked questions about the Packers, he was told he couldn't answer the questions and was moving on to the Denver Broncos.
Nagy was asked about the comments and said it wasn't him that told him to not talk about, and thinks it was rather Trubisky trying to say he was moving on to the Broncos, and the message was just taken the wrong way.

Trubisky hasn't looked very happy on the podium, but Nagy said on the practice field he is upbeat and ready to get back on the field.
“He’s out there smiling and giggling out at practice and having a good time and that, to me, is what’s important,” Nagy said. “We’re gonna be focused in meetings, and there’s going to be times where you really got to zone in and make sure you’re extremely focused — as long as you’re not letting it affect your practices. And [Wednesday] I didn’t see that at all with him.”
It's a big game this weekend for the Bears, as they don't want to drop to 0-2 to start the season, especially with how tough the NFC North is.
