As the Bears try to save their season down the stretch, they’ll take on the Cowboys tonight with a significantly depleted starting lineup.

Their most significant absence, arguably, is cornerback Prince Amukamara. He missed all week of practice because of a hamstring injury and will not play against Dallas. The Bears are likely to try second-year corner Kevin Toliver, who has played three defensive snaps this season.

Here are the Bears’ inactives:

LB Danny Trevathan
CB Prince Amukamara
