Former Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky is heading to Buffalo. The Bills announced Thursday that they had signed Trubisky to a one-year contract.

The news brings an official end to the Trubisky era in Chicago. The 26-year-old quarterback spent his entire four-year career in Chicago. Bears general manager Ryan Pace drafted Trubisky second overall in the 2017 draft. Trubisky went 29-21 as a starter with the Bears. He helped the Bears to two playoff appearances, including an NFC North division title in 2018, but never won a playoff game.

Trubisky will likely serve as the backup to Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen. Allen led the Bills to a 13-3 season last year, which included a run to the AFC Championship game.

The Bears announced Wednesday they had signed quarterback Andy Dalton, signaling an end to Trubisky's tenure in Chicago.
