The Jay Cutler to Brandon Marshall connection is alive and well once again. Marshall was traded to the Chicago Bears in the moments leading up to the start of NFL Free Agency 2012, according to Fox Sports' Jay Glazer;
↵↵↵Major scoopage! The Chicago Bears have agreed to terms of a trade w Miami for pro bowl WR Brandon Marshall in exchange for 2 third-rounders.

↵Recall that in 2010, the Denver Broncos traded Marshall to the Miami Dolphins for a pair of second-round picks. Here, the Bears need only give up a third-rounder this year and one in 2013. That's a huge win for the Bears, and it leaves Vincent Jackson to go elsewhere in free agency. He was widely believed to land with the Bears in the days leading up to the opening of the free agent market.
↵Marshall caught 81 balls for 1,214 yards and six touchdowns on 2011
