[Phil DeNomme]

Might as well resign him to a short incentived deal now.

*Sources: No surgery for Grossman*

*By David Haugh*

It looked much worse as he walked off the field Thursday night but Rex
Grossman will not face surgery after the nasty knee injury suffered against
the Washington Redskins, sources told the Tribune Friday.

An MRI revealed that the medial collateral ligament wasn't torn but merely
sprained. The difference could keep Grossman in Chicago if the Bears
determine that the month-long recovery time is worth a risk.

A surgical procedure would have delayed Grossman's return to the field until
likely next summer and created too much uncertainty about the free-agent's
future for the Bears to count on a full recovery.

Grossman was said to be relieved that the injury news wasn't worse but
disappointed about the loss and that he would be unable to finish out the
season.
