LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — Brian Hoyer’s three straight 300-yard passing efforts suggest the quarterback position for the Chicago Bears is in good hands until quarterback Jay Cutler returns from a thumb sprain.
Inconsistency in other areas continues to plague the 1-4 Bears following their 29-23 loss Sunday at Indianapolis.
Linebacker Willie Young says coach John Fox addressed the issue in talking with players ahead of a home game Sunday against Jacksonville. Young says the Bears are “so close,” with every game coming down to a few plays.
Fox yesterday said he has no timetable yet on when or if Cutler will be back.
