rex“According to the United Football League Web site, former Bears quarterback Rex Grossman will participate in drills in front of UFL head coaches.The Web site quotes a Las Vegas television station, saying that another player, former Texas Tech star, Graham Harrell, will also participate in the drills in a “pro day” in Las Vegas. ”

This is the same guy who was the starting quarterback for the Bears in Super Bowl XLI.

It’s just amazing how a guy could drop off like this, I thought for sure someone in the NFL would bring him on as a backup.

Grossman even hired a new agent, Drew Rosenhaus, just to get some attention from the NFL.

Rosenhaus made this statement about Grossman earlier this month :

“Free agent QB Rex Grossman has been training hard on a daily basis and is looking forward to signing with a team in time for OTA’s.”

This is what Drew Rosenhaus had to say about the rumors that Grossman will be trying out in the UFL:

“Rex will be playing in the NFL this season, we have not considered any other leagues. He will be on
a NFL roster by the start of training camps.”

I was one of the few Rex supporters in Chicago, but wherever he lands I wish him all of my best.

Good luck Rex.
