Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler hasn’t practiced all week while he recovers from a ligament injury in his right thumb. He was listed as doubtful on Friday, leading many to speculate that veteran backup Brian Hoyer would be getting the nod against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3.

And while it’s still very likely that Hoyer will be the Bears’ starter on Sunday night, there remains a chance that he could take a back seat to Cutler.

Chicago announced today that nose tackle Eddie Goldman and running back Ka’Deem Carey did not make the trip to Dallas with the rest of the team. Like Cutler, both Goldman and Carey are nursing injuries that had them listed as doubtful on Friday.

Unlike Cutler, they’re staying home.

While nothing was stated about Cutler’s status, the fact that he got on the plane and is making the trip suggests the Bears will let him test his thumb in warmups to determine whether he can give it a go.

Chicago is a heavy underdog this week. The Cowboys are favored by a touchdown and nearly every expert in the industry is picking Dak Prescott and company to come out on top.

The Bears will have a much better chance to pull off the upset with Cutler under center. It remains highly unlikely, however, that he will be.
