In and Out


Two players had wildly differing fortunes in the NFL today. Kyle Orton has been named the starting QB of the Chicago Bears. This is, of course, after Rex Grossman sustained an injury that will have him out for most of the season and Chad Hutchinson managed a 0.0 passer rating in Friday night's game (I could manage a 0.0 passer rating). He's now fourth on the Bears QB depth chart.

Maurice Clarett has been cut from the Denver Broncos. He didn't play in 3 preseason games and missed much of practice due to injury. It was noted that he had a bad attitude (Gasp!). Also, he had decided to load his contract with incentives and forego a signing bonus. Oops. Probably could have used that $410,000 right about now. It looks like the Broncos don't even want him on their practive sqad.
