Jay Cutler has denied the notion coming out of report from Bleacher Report that he's lost the Chicago Bears' locker room.

Multiple players conveyed that sentiment in the report.

One of those players said Cutler's lack of preparation before Chicago's 36-10 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was "truly embarrassing."

Cutler finished the game 16-of-30 for 183 yards, two interceptions (one for a pick-six) and two lost fumbles.

"Unnamed source, I'm guessing?" Cutler asked on Thursday. "The source could be a lot of people. It could be a made-up source. It could actually be guys in there. If people actually start putting their names on it, we can have a discussion about it.

"The game before [versus Minnesota in Week 8] was the opposite end of the spectrum. Whenever you lose, we all know what this position entails. And when you do have a performance like that as a quarterback, you're going to get some of that stuff. I don't feel like the locker room has ever [given up on me]. I've never felt like that in the locker room with those guys."
