Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler is expected to start Sunday's game against Minnesota.

According to NFL.com and the team's website, Cutler was medically cleared to play after missing last Monday's loss to San Francisco with a concussion he sustained the previous week against Houston.

After sitting out the second half of the 13-6 loss to the Texans, Cutler also watched from home as Jason Campbell guided the Chicago offense to a season-low 143 yards in the 32-7 setback to the 49ers.

Cutler returned to practice this week on a limited basis and had been listed as questionable on the team's injury report.
