Report: Giants trade for Sage Rosenfels

Football Betting Lines

09/03/2010 - Minneapolis, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Giants have apparently found a backup quarterback after reportedly acquiring Sage Rosenfels from the Minnesota Vikings.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune cited sources as confirming the move, and the NFL Network is reporting a future conditional draft pick is headed back to the Vikings as compensation.

New York has been in the market for a qualified backup to Eli Manning since Jim Sorgi was put on injured reserve earlier this week with a shoulder injury. Sorgi was signed in March after six seasons backing up Manning's brother Peyton in Indianapolis. That left second-year pro Rhett Bomar the most experienced QB behind Manning.

In Rosenfels, the Giants get a nine-year veteran with 32 games of experience and 12 NFL starts to his credit. The 32-year-old's most prolific year came in 2007 while filling in for an injured Matt Schaub in Houston. Rosenfels appeared in nine games and started five, completing 64.2 percent of his passes for 1,684 yards and 15 touchdowns, with 12 interceptions.

In 2008, Rosenfels again filled in for an injured Schaub and saw time in six games with five starts. He ended up connecting at a 66.7-percent clip for 1,431 yards and six TDs to go with 10 picks.

The Iowa State product served as the third-string quarterback in Minnesota last year behind Brett Favre and Tarvaris Jackson.

Problem with Bears?

Chicago, IL - New Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler and star linebacker Brian Urlacher shot down reports of a rift, saying they're simply not true.

"There's nothing between us," Cutler said Thursday, when he reported to training camp. "I just want to put that to rest. There never has been anything between us."

Urlacher added: "I never said what I was quoted as saying and that's it. I have a lot of respect for Jay. I think Jay knows that."
Former Bears receiver Bobby Wade caused a stir when he told Minneapolis radio station KFAN-AM that Urlacher used a profanity while questioning Cutler's manhood during a conversation in Las Vegas last weekend. Wade, who now plays for the Vikings, said Urlacher used a profane version of the word "wimp" during the interview that had to be edited out.
go radio station WSCR-AM also reported that Urlacher had to be restrained from confronting Cutler during organized team activities.
"I wouldn't go face-to-face with Brian, anyway," Cutler said. "No, that's never happened. I've hung out with Brian away from the facility numerous times and we've always gotten along."
Urlacher, noting he was limited by a groin injury, denied the reports in an interview with the Chicago Tribune and did it again when he reported to camp.
"I didn't practice this summer, so I don't know how I would fight the guy if I didn't practice," Urlacher said. "We have no problems. I'm excited about football starting. I'm excited to have him as our quarterback."
Why would Wade say that?
"I don't know," Urlacher said. "Maybe he's jealous because we have a good quarterback now."
Cutler said the first he heard of any friction was when he got a call from Urlacher to clear the air. Urlacher, however, said he had already taken several calls from teammates wondering if the reports were true when Cutler phoned.
"He called me and I said, What's up (expletive), what are you doing?'" a grinning Urlacher said, uttering the same word he allegedly used with Wade. "It's so dumb to me that this even got to this point, but it did and then here we are."
better place after going 9-7 and missing the playoffs for the second straight year. They have a franchise quarterback for the first time in decades after acquiring Cutler in an offseason trade with Denver. But there are questions about his attitude following a fallout with Broncos management and new coach Josh McDaniels.
His critics include former Bears coach Mike Ditka and former Indianapolis and Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy, one of Smith's mentors. Smith, however, said Cutler has been a model teammate so far while denying any animosity with Urlacher.
"There's no issue with Jay and Brian, except Brian and Jay are both excited about being teammates for our club this year," coach Lovie Smith said. "No more than that. We can't spend a whole lot of time on something that isn't true. I have talked to the players. Whenever something comes out, you have to address it, but it's a non-issue."
In some ways, Cutler is getting a second chance in Chicago, an opportunity to repair his reputation.
Smith said another quarterback - Michael Vick - deserves one, although he doesn't see it happening with the Bears, who lack an experienced backup. The former Atlanta Falcons star, who served a 23-month sentence for running a dogfighting ring, said Thursday he is getting close to signing with a pro football team.
"A second chance, like everyone in society who has paid their debt to society," Smith said. "He deserves a second chance. As far as we're concerned, we like this team that we have right now."
Particularly the new quarterback.
"Me and Brian have been on a good relationship since I've been here, and I expect it to continue that way," Cutler said.
