LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) -- If Jay Cutler's salivating at the thought of passing to Terrell Owens, he wasn't about to let the public in on it.

The Chicago Bears quarterback refused to say Wednesday whether he's like the team to acquire the flashy and controversial receiver from Buffalo.

Asked what he would say if Bears management approached him about Owens, Cutler responded: "I don't think they're going to. I think they'll do that upstairs."

Asked if he's texted or tweeted Owens, Cutler simply said he doesn't know him.

The Bears (3-1) play at Atlanta (3-1) this weekend.
