Devin Hester rips Jay Cutler’s leadership

Jay Cutler was “the worst” when it came to leadership, former Bears star Devin Hester told Bleacher Report’s “Untold Stories.”

“He’s the best quarterback when it comes to accuracy, power, knowledge of the game — the best quarterback, hands down, I’ve ever played with ...” he told host Master Tesfatsion. “Now when it comes to leadership? The worst...He don’t know how to communicate. He don’t know how to get his teammates involved.”

Cutler and Hester’s fractured relationship — particularly when it came to the latter serving as a receiver — was never a secret.

A star returner, Hester said he believed he’d be one of the Bears’ top receivers when he signed his first contract extension with the team.
