Grossman Lands With The Redskins

The man who supposedly took a ride to the Super Bowl with the Bears in 2006 has signed with the Washington Redskins.
Grossman was used sparingly last season with the Houston Texans, backing up Pro Bowler Matt Schaub. The seven-year veteran was a favorite at the beginning of his time with the Bears because of his gun-slinging abilities. But he was quickly hated for his horrible decisions and his constant interceptions. Even though Grossman wasn’t that bad, Bears fans constantly booed him. In my opinion I wouldn’t mind having him backup Jay Cutler, but I guess they’re too much a like.
The Redskins will visit Soldier Field next season and if Grossman lands a roster spot, I can’t imagine the kind of warm reception Bears fans will give him. I mean he did “lead” them to a super bowl.
For his career, Grossman has played in 37 games with 31 starts. He has completed 524-of-971 passes for 6,197 yards, 33 touchdowns and 36 interceptions. His QB rating is 65.9.
Good luck Rex in your second spot after getting dumped by the Bears. Seriously good luck, you need it. If Jason Campbell goes down you might be in for a rude awakening.
