Rex Grossman

8/12/2006

Grossman had a rough preseason game on Friday against the San Francisco 49ers. The Chicago Bears quarterback was 3-for-11 for 47 yards.

1/1/2006

The FOX affiliate in Chicago is reporting that Grossman will not start against the Minnesota Vikings Sunday. The Bears' quarterback will be on the bench for the season finale with a playoff spot sown up. Instead, the Bears will go with rookie Kyle Orton.

12/31/2005

There is a good chance Grossman may not start in Chicago's game Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, reports the Chicago Sun Times. Despite a great start last weekend, the Bears' quarterback might take a back seat to No. 2 Kyle Orton in order to assure a healthy start for the playoffs. Bears coach Lovie Smith said he will not announce Chicago's starter until kick off, although he had Orton receiving a good portion of snaps in Friday's practice.

12/19/2005

Grossman will make his seventh NFL start when the Bears play at Green Bay Sunday. The Bears' quarterback played in his first regular-season game since Sept. 26, 2004, when he replaced Bears' starter Kyle Orton in the third quarter of Sunday's 16-3 win over the Falcons. Grossman was 9 of 16 passing for 93 yards and an interception.

12/8/2005

Grossman reportedly took about 20 percent of the snaps with the Bears' first-team offense on Wednesday and reported no problems with his leg. As a result, the quarterback, who has been sidelined since dislocating and fracturing his left ankle in the team's first preseason game, has been promoted to No. 2 on the depth chart and will serve as rookie Kyle Orton's primary backup in Sunday's meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Veteran Jeff Blake drops to third-string.

12/6/2005

Grossman continues to expand his involvement in the Bears' practices, and barring any setbacks, he's expected to move up the depth chart and take over as the primary backup to Kyle Orton as early as this week. The quarterback, who has been sidelined since dislocating and fracturing his left ankle in the team's first preseason game, has served as the No. 3 emergency QB the past couple of weeks.

11/23/2005

The Bears' projected starting quarterback for the 2005 season will dress for the first time since the third game of the 2004 season. Grossman will dress as an emergency third quarterback behind Kyle Orton and Jeff Blake.

11/18/2005

If Grossman continues to show progress, he is expected to practice at full speed with the Chicago Bears as early as next week. The quarterback, who has been sidelined since dislocating and fracturing his left ankle in the team's first preseason game, was able to work out with the Bears' scout team on Thursday and reported no major problems.

10/21/2005

Grossman, who continues to recover from a broken left ankle, currently is targeting a November 27 meeting with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as his likely return date. The quarterback hopes to begin running next week, and if no problems are reported, he could resume practicing in early November.

9/15/2005

Grossman has begun a rehab program after having the cast removed from his broken and surgically repaired left ankle earlier this week. The Bears' quarterback, who suffered the injury in a preseason contest more than a month ago, has not been placed on injured reserve, and he hopes to be back under center before the end of the season.

8/12/2005

Grossman left Friday night's game against the Rams in the first quarter. Preliminary results say that he suffered a broken left ankle, and is likely to miss 3-4 months. After missing the majority of last season with a torn ACL, Grossman was looking forward to his first full season as the Bears' starting quarterback, but will now have to put those plans on hold.

5/21/2005

Grossman reportedly had no problems with his surgically repaired right knee during the Bears' first minicamp practice on Friday. The third-year quarterback, who played just three games in 2004 after tearing his ACL on the lone touchdown run of his NFL career,
