Last week, some members of the Chicago Bears said the players were not going to get together for offseason workouts until they were sure that it wouldn’t be a waste of time. Apparently, they’re sure now.
Jay Cutler told Sean Jensen of the Chicago Sun Times that the workouts are on and “everything is locked and loaded”. (He may have meant locked-out and loaded, but you get the idea…)
Only the Bears offensive players are gathering, though. Cutler explained why:
“I mean, those defenders have been in the system for eight years, nine years, What are they gonna do?” he said. “What am I going to tell Lach [Brian Urlacher]? ‘Your drop is a little short. Sorry, buddy.’ Offensively, we have a lot of room to improve.”
Cutler wouldn’t say exactly when the workouts will start.
