The Chicago Bears (6-6) released their Tuesday injury report ahead of Thursday’s primetime matchup against the Dallas Cowboys (6-6).
For the second straight day, cornerback Prince Amukamara missed practice with a hamstring injury. If Amukamara can’t go for Thursday’s game, Kevin Toliver will likely start in his place.
Wide receiver Taylor Gabriel and tight end Ben Braunecker remain in concussion protocol and appear doubtful for Thursday night. In that case, Chicago will turn to some of its young prospects in second-year receiver Javon Wims and rookie tight end Jesper Horsted.
Defensive tackle Bilal Nichols popped up on Tuesday’s injury report, although Tuesday’s practice is essentially a Friday practice for the Bears. Nichols is typically limited given they practice indoors. He should be good to go against Dallas.
Right tackle Bobby Massie remains out with a high-ankle sprain that’s likely to sideline him for a few weeks. Linebacker Danny Trevathan also remains out with an elbow injury.
Injury designations will be revealed on Wednesday ahead of Thursday’s game against the Cowboys, and it doesn’t look good for those besides Nichols on the injury report.
