3 jobs Jay Cutler would be better at than a broadcaster
Tony Romo is a natural for television. He's charismatic, well liked by most fan bases who don't hate the Cowboys, and has an endearing, guy-you-want-to-get-a-beer-with type of persona.
Jay Cutler, on the other hand, doesn't seem like someone who wants to spend his post-football days on camera, which is why it's strange the veteran quarterback is reportedly exploring a move to broadcasting.
Here are three (kind of real) jobs Cutler would be better at:
Butt model
I mean, look at those cheeks. That's the butt that sent shockwaves through the NFL world when the picture was posted by Cutler's wife, Kristin Cavallari, while the couple was on vacation this offseason.
As pointed out by Cavallari, Cutler has an impressive lack of tan lines, which, we presume, is a must in the butt-modeling industry.
Now, the paychecks might not be the same as Cutler is used to - or comparable to ones he'd get as a broadcaster - but the quarterback has always seemed like the type of guy who needs a stress-free job, a place he can really let everything just ... you know, hang.
And who's ever heard of a stressed butt model? Not us.
Professional gruff Cowboy
Is this a real job? Maybe not. Would Cutler be perfect for it? You bet his sweet ass he would.
Over the course of his career, Cutler has earned the reputation for being an I-don't-give-a-crap gunslinger, so it stands to reason he'd be a good one in real life. Plus, he has the gruff attitude and real-world-man facial hair of the reluctant American Frontier Sheriff cliche.
Maybe a role in the hit TV show "Westworld" would fit Cutler best. After 11 seasons playing in the NFL, acting in a show where the world's inhabitants are treated like expendable objects by an all-powerful organization shouldn't be too hard for Cutler.
Cigarette company spokesman
Smokin' Jay Cutler is already an internet sensation. There's no reason that Cutler can't turn his meme into a career.
Seriously, go scroll through some of the amazing creations. We'll wait.
Done? You're welcome.
One small issue: Cutler isn't a fan of cigarettes.
"I don't smoke at all, bro," Cutler said in 2013, according to ESPN's Mike Wright. "I hate cigarettes."
Well, it looked like he hated playing quarterback too, so there's no reason he can't put his feelings aside and be the face of Marlboro or Camel.
