Fantasy Impact:
While Foles is expected to play through his hip injury in Sunday's matchup with the Lions, he will be in a reserve role if he is indeed active. Mitchell Trubisky is slated to start. Trubisky is 3-1 as the Bears' starter this season while Foles is 2-5. Trubisky has also thrown for nine touchdowns in those four starts while Foles has thrown for 10 scores in seven. Trubisky has an excellent matchup with the Lions this week, a team he historically plays uber-well against. He's thrown for three touchdowns in each of his past four games against them with a pair of 300+ yard outings in that period. In those four games, Trubisky is 4-0 and 4-2 overall in his career versus Detroit. If Trubiksy played against the Lions every week, Ryan Pace would look like a genius.
