Redskins Sign QB Rex Grossman

The Washington Redskins have added a former Florida quarterback to their roster, Rex Grossman has signed with the 'Skins, according to the team's official blog. Grossman, a first-round draft pick in 2003, left the Bears for the Texans in 2009 and was a backup behind Matt Schaub. The connection for Grossman is Kyle Shanahan - he's the new offensive coordinator in Washington after leaving the same position in Houston.

Since leaving the Bears after 2008, all Grossman is going to do is bounce from team to team. He isn't worth more than a 1 year contract.

 

Glad he's out of Houston

 

Grossman's last chance with me when he was with the Bears was three games into the 2007 season. I don't miss him in Chicago.

 

From what Sirius NFL said this morning Chris Simms was hoping to be taken by the Redskins since he has history with Shanahan, Kyle that is but it's highly unlikely that the Redskins will offer him a job too.

 

Eww

 

Good for him. Great guy. :icon_cool:

 

Ooops I posted a duplicate thread in general discussion. :icon_rolleyes:

 

Glad it's only for 1 year. I assume he's here just because he knows Shanahan's system, Kyle that is. He'll probably be used like Todd Collins was when Saunders was here.

 

And so the legend of Rex Grossman continues!

Why would the redskins make a move to make their team worst instead of better

 

Haters. :icon_evil:

 

How can you say "haters" when bear fans couldn't wait for him out of Chicago cause he sucked, you can see Texans fans happy that he is out of there. He is not a well liked guy cause he wasn't a very good QB , there was always the question of which Rex would show up sometimes it would be "Good Rex" and sometimes it was "Bad Rex"

 

Dude, URL54MVP was joking (I think), chill out.

 

Will they rename the team the Rexskins or the Wrexskins? :icon_cheesygrin:

 

Really? Wow I did not know that. Tell me more about this Good Rex/Bad Rex thing. . :icon_eek:

Yes you are all haters. Rex is my boy. The Bears had more problems than him when he was in Chicago so anyone who tries to pin that situation entirely on him is ignorant of what actually happened. :icon_cool:


**********Automerged Doublepost**********

Kind of. I'm posting in this thread for fun more than anything but I did like Rex and I will always remember the Good Rex. That is just how it is. lol

I mean when you get down it, Rex did make some key plays to help get us by Seattle and New Orleans in that 2006 Super Bowl run. Those two playoff wins are good memories for me and it was exciting. Yes the ending in Miami sucked. But such is life. :icon_confused:

 

Yeah y2kbug, tell every Bears fan something they DON'T know about Rex Grossman, if you can, lol.

 

Miami has been bad for us. It was our only loss in 1985 also if you remember, 38-24.. :icon_sad:

 

Now they just need to sign Joey Porter and draft Jason Pierre Paul and that should cap off an incredible offseason.

 

And where is one of the Bears road games in 2010? In Miami...
