Mitchell Trubisky, ranked #69 in HeyTC AI Rankings after posting 0 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs, and a 0.0 passer rating in 2025, enters a pivotal 2026 offseason as an unrestricted free agent for the Bills following their injury-plagued 12-5 campaign that ended in playoff disappointment. The 31-year-old backup shone in relief Week 18, torching the Jets for 259 yards and four TDs in a 35-8 rout while Josh Allen preserved his streak, earning praise from his wife's heartfelt nod to fired coach Sean McDermott's family. With roster shakeups looming—headlined by stars like Shaq Thompson, Brandin Cooks, and Tre'Davious White also hitting free agency amid cap woes—Trubisky's Bills brotherhood shines through as he reflected on a "special year," but re-signing feels iffy unless Buffalo prioritizes backup stability for another Allen-led push. Outlook? Spot starter insurance in a revamped defense, or shopping his steady hand elsewhere.
