Former NBA player and noted analyst Charles Barkley has taken a strong stance against NFL players who criticized Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler after he left the NFC Championship game with an apparent knee injury.
Controversy broke out after a number of sources suggested Cutler, who was later revealed to have sprained his MCL, wasn’t “tough enough” to continue playing through pain. Chicago lost the game, 21-14, to the Green Bay Packers, who will meet the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl.
