Jay Cutler appears to be done playing football in the NFL, but fans will still be seeing and hearing a lot from him during the 2017 season.
On Friday, FOX Sports announced that Cutler has joined the network and will work in the broadcast booth this upcoming season alongside Kevin Burkhardt and Charles Davis.

A report on Thursday revealed that Cutler was considering the possibility of getting into broadcasting and had already auditioned for one network, so things obviously came together quickly.
Cutler, 34, was unable to generate much interest on the free agent market after being released by the Chicago Bears. He appeared in just five games last season due to injury, and there was really only one team that he was linked to in the past month.
Everyone knew Tony Romo would eventually land a TV gig after he was done playing, but few people envisioned Cutler taking the same career path. This should be very fascinating.
