Josh McCown is not sure about next year; Could call it a career
The Chicago Bears quarterback saga continues, and it could be great news for Jay Cutler. I personally would like to see Josh McCown get his shot, but it sounds as if he is not ready for that opportunity.
“It’s a year-to-year thing of how long is this going to be,” McCown told the Chicago Sun-Times. “In our minds, when we commit to it, it’s for a year. So to be apart like this, it’s a tough deal. But it’s something everybody (in my family) talks about, including my daughter, my oldest, especially, just sitting with her, ‘Is all this OK? Are you cool with this?’ So she’s been great with it all.
“But for me, I know that there is a time coming where it’s going to get harder and harder. I kind of have a thought process in my mind of: I don’t know if I want to do this and let her get out of my house having done this the last four years where we live apart.
“There’s not enough money in the world to justify and make it feel OK to miss those games and stuff like that. It’s a process. It’s things that we think about, quite honestly, moving forward in my career in the direction, ‘Are we going to keep playing?’ All those things, because it’s a real question, because those things are hard.”
