Denver Post: Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler has asked to be
traded. Cutler's agent, Bus Cook, made the request on behalf of
his client. The demand comes a day after the latest meeting
between Cutler and new Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels.
McDaniels reiterated his desire to keep Cutler as the team's
quarterback, only a little while after Denver reportedly explored
a trade opportunity to add former Patriots quarterback Matt Cassel. Cassel was subsequently traded to division rival Kansas
City. The report states that McDaniels admitted to Cutler that he
had pursued Cassel and that he was not apologetic about it. Cutler
has felt betrayed by the club, feeling that he was supposed to be
the team's franchise quarterback. Team owner Pat Bowlen said he
supports his new head coach and is disappointed in the way Cutler
has handled the situation but is not happy about the prospects of
losing his quarterback.
