Grossman hurts left ankle, is carried off field
Associated Press

ST. LOUIS -- Chicago Bears quarterback Rex Grossman injured his left ankle early in the second quarter of Friday night's preseason game against the St. Louis Rams and was carted off the field.

Grossman, who played in only three games last season before being sidelined by a right knee injury, was hurt with 11:08 to go in the half as he threw a pass. After being flushed out of the pocket and being spun around by Trev Faulk, he got back to his feet. While limping, Grossman signaled for a trainer.

He then sat down and grabbed his left knee. He slammed his helmet on the cart before he left the game.

The Bears used four quarterbacks last year and have used at least three in six of seven seasons.

Grossman was 6-for-11 for 52 yards before leaving the scoreless game. He was replaced by Chad Hutchinson.

And now Hutch is the man.

Grossman out 3-4 months with a fractured left ankle.

Oh man. Now we have to hope Hutch beats the Skins in WK 1. Is Grossman brittle or what?

It happens almost every year that a big name starter goes down with an injury at some point in the preason.

Here's hoping that we dodge our share of bullets.

Good luck to Hutch. I caught him in the Miami preseason game last week. He played well. He had some nice zip on the ball and didn't fall into his old habit of holding onto the ball too long.

I think he'll be a good NFL QB one day ... he has the skills, just needs to hone them.

Here's his chance. Good luck to him.

Yeah I saw him in the Miami game too, he looked good and avoided the rush alot better than he used to, and he holds the ball closer to his chest to avoid fumbles. So IMO he has greatly improved since he left Dallas.
