Grossman Back In Charge

Quarterback Rex Grossman, who led the Chicago Bears to the Super Bowl in 2006 but then lost his job after the first three games of this season, will return to the lineup for Sunday's road game against the Seattle Seahawks. Sources close to Grossman confirmed that he will supplant Brian Griese in the lineup. Griese had started six games since replacing Grossman but suffered a sprained shoulder in last week's game against the Oakland Raiders. Grossman led the Bears to a 17-6 comeback victory in that game, completing 7-of-14 passes for 142 yards, with one touchdown pass and no interceptions. It was not immediately known if coach Lovie Smith made the switch because of the shoulder injury or Griese's recent streak of inconsistent play.
