Jay Cutler will miss at least two weeks with a hamstring injury.
Cutler suffered the injury trying to make a tackle following an interception in Week 2.
The Chicago Bears are off to an 0-2 start.
Jimmy Clausen will start for the Bears in Cutler's absence.
Alshon Jeffery is questionable for Week 2 after suffering a setback.
Jeffery is dealing with calf and hamstring injuries.
Jeffery practiced without restrictions Wednesday and Thursday but missed practice on Friday with "hamstring tightness," according to head coach John Fox.
"He'll be day-to-day and questionable for the game," Fox said. "He had some hamstring tightness after yesterday's practice, and we held him out today. But questionable for the game."
