“I have great respect for Kyle,” Emery told Jeff Dickerson on ESPN Radio. “When I was in Kansas City, we brought him in. That’s the famous claim the Bears figured they would get [in 2011]. We claimed him. He came in. He started against the Bears; got hurt first or second play. At the time in Kansas City, we won the game. The next week, he starts against Green Bay, an undefeated Green Bay team [which] had the longest winning streak in football at that point. [He] beat them; beat them in Kansas City. Great leadership skills, guys really like playing for him, big arm. So the skill set is there. But as far as where he’s going in his career… that we don’t know.”

I wouldn't mind him and it only increases competition for our backup QB's.

Last I heard was that Orton may consider calling it a career unless the money is right.

It would be hilarious to see Cutler/Orton and Marshall on the same team,

I prefer Orton over Palmer and Clausen.

If the Bears defense was back, Orton can come in to "manage the game". But in all honesty, the Bears will need some plays out of a backup QB the way the defense is somewhat middle of the pack now. Aside from a short time in Denver, didn't see Orton do much of that sort of attack.
