Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz will start against the Chicago Bears on Thursday despite still nursing a bicep tendon strain.
The strain is by Wentz' throwing shoulder, which unsurprisingly led to questions over his availability due to the quick turnaround of games. However, as Washington are set to have a 10-day rest between Thursday's game and their following clash against the Green Bay Packers, they're willing to take a risk.
Wentz is still in some discomfort, and sources have stated he isn't 100 per-cent despite being seen throwing in practice. But head coach Ron Rivera is hoping to get through Thursday's game, and then allow Wentz to heal due to their prolonged rest the following week.
