Jay Cutler Reveals He Had 15 Concussions During Career, Says CTE ‘Coming At Some Point’

Former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler has been in the news a lot since his retirement. And it more than likely that the gunslinger is actually more popular in his post-playing days than he was when he was a starting QB in the league.

On Wednesday, Cutler appeared on Barstool Sports’ Pardon My Take podcast, and shared a lot of funny stories and anecdotes. But what he said about head injuries is actually pretty troubling.

Jay Cutler said he believes he’s suffered 15 concussions over the course of his career.

“That CTE, it’s coming at some point,” Cutler said.

Jay Cutler recently made news when giving his thoughts on when the Chicago Bears should start rookie quarterback Justin Fields.

“I wouldn’t play the kid to start,” Cutler said. “That’s where I’d start. I’d let him watch. I think it’s just a tough spot to just throw someone out there, especially in Chicago. And I think Andy is more than serviceable. I think they can win games with Andy and kind of pull the ship along until (Fields) is ready.

Jay Cutler remains the same guy he was his whole career. Let’s hope those hits to the head never change that.
