Cutting Jay Cutler Loose

It appears that quarterback Jay Cutler and the Denver Broncos will go their separate ways, reports ESPN [2], which writes that Cutler will not report to a team meeting today and that he has asked to be traded after a meeting Sunday with new head coach Josh McDaniels did not go well. Speculation already surrounds where Cutler may go. (The Jets need a quarterback, as this New York Times blog notes [3].) It seemed Cutler was destined to leave by late last week, when The Denver Post [4] reported that he was selling the lavish Parker home that he paid $1.34 million for in 2006  [5]. Team owner Pat Bowlen, meanwhile, told 9News [6] yesterday that he's "disappointed in the whole picture, not just disappointed that we might lose our star quarterback." The so-called McJaygate scandal began when McDaniels, New England's former offensive coordinator, entertained the notion of trading Cutler to Tampa Bay in a deal that would have brought quarterback Matt Cassel from the Patriots to the Broncos.
