Biggs: Cutler skeptical of T.O.

[UOK]

With the Chicago Bears offense showing little in the way of playmakers at wide receiver, quarterback Jay Cutler was asked if the team could add a player who, in his prime, was dominant.

Terrell Owens, who suffered a torn ACL during the spring and was hospitalized last week after a “medical emergency” in Los Angeles, was suggested by reporters to Cutler as a potential receiver candidate.

“I don’t think it’s possible,” Cutler said. “Hypothetically, yeah, we’d like to bring anybody in here, but six games into it, half a season into it, and expect them to be a real contributor is … it’s just hard.”

Owens has maintained that he will return to football this season, but it’s difficult to imagine the Bears being a suitor. They’ve had no interest in him in the past.

There aren’t any details on why he was hospitalized. In 2006, Owens denied police reports that he attempted suicide with painkilling medication while a member of the Dallas Cowboys.
