While Jay Cutler has lost his starting job for at least the time being, he hasn’t lost his spot on the Bears’ game day roster.
As expected, Cutler is active and will back up Jimmy Clausen on Sunday against Detroit.
The Bears’ other quarterback, David Fales, is among the club’s seven inactives, leaving Cutler as the only quarterback behind Clausen.
The 31-year-old Cutler was removed as the Bears’ starter on Wednesday. He has not been a clear-cut backup since serving as Jake Plummer’s understudy for the first 11 games of 2006.
