Quarterback Brian Hoyer is preparing as if
he's the starter at quarterback in place of the injured Jay Cutler
as the Chicago Bears get set to play in Dallas on Sunday night
against the Dallas Cowboys.
Hoyer played for the Houston Texans during a playoff run last
season.
Cutler suffered a thumb sprain Monday night in a 29-14 loss to the
Philadelphia Eagles. He hasn't officially been listed as out, but
he is not practicing.
