Yes he should be fine, but this most severe form of diabetes.
Buford T. Jaded, 6’3”/215
On a personal level ya just hope Cutler will manage this and lead a healthy life......on a selfish level ya have to wonder what the Broncos did to shit in Karma's Wheaties, so to speak......

If you haven't read the article, I encourage you to do so. If he takes care of himself which I fully expect him to do, he should be able resume his career and have long and productive life.

None.

Just wondering what you have to back that statement up? Nowhere in that article did it suggest that it would shorten his career.
Senior Member
There is nothing to say it will definitely shorten his career.

Everybody take a deep breath and relax.
Of the type 1 diabetics I have known, the only ones that had severe trouble were the ones who did not take care of themselves. Wouldn't take their insulin like they were supposed too, drank and partied too much, overweight, no exercise, just people who would not have been considered in good health even without the diabetes.
I have also known a few type 1 diabetics who were very disciplined in their eating and insulin and were in excellent condition. If they went a little too long between meals, they would get a little groggy, but usually recognized it and got it taken care of.
Luckily for Jay, he has enough $$$ to hire a personal chef or nutritionist to get his meals planned out and made, if he wants to. He is also a professional athlete, so probably has a pretty good eating regimen anyway.
He seems to be the kind of guy who actually cares about his own health, so at this point, I really am not worried about him, either on a personal or professional level. The team will just need to make sure they keep plenty of oranges, insulin, etc on the sidelines.

No its not good news but if he takes care of himself there is very a good chance it wont adversely affect his career.

im no dr., but its hard to think that diabeties, a disease THAT kills people, would not shorten his career.
sheer health and family alone are more important than football. Football has now dropped down the "priority" totem pole a couple spots for Jay.....

Leads to death as an older person...
Cutler will be fine, as long as he stays fit and eats right.
