BOCA RATON, Fla. – Few topics in Chicago football engender greater emotion than Jay Cutler, particularly his future as Bears quarterback now that he is turning 33 in a month.
As far as his head coach is concerned, there is no discussion.
Not because of Cutler’s age. Not because of Cutler’s performance. Not because of pretty much anything Cutler-related. If you want to talk Bears quarterbacks, talk to Fox about Cutler’s backups, not his replacement.
“He might’ve been the most pleasant surprise on our team of a year ago,” coach John Fox said on Wednesday at the NFL owners meetings.
