This will be a big blow for the Chicago Bears as they already are off to a 0-2 start. The team plans to run tests on Cutler tomorrow to evaluate his injury. Backup QB Brian Hoyer will be next up if Cutler is ruled out for Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. Have we seen the last of Jay Cutler playing with the Bears? The Bears must have the scenario in consideration to maybe move on from Cutler, knowing that the team is most likely not going to make the Playoffs this year. The Bears are one of the youngest teams in the NFL, as they look to rebuild into a contending team once again.
