The Missouri Tigers released their depth chart for the Music City Bowl against Iowa, set to be played on Monday, Dec. 30 at Nissan Stadium in Nashville.

Outside of players who declared for the NFL draft, entered the transfer portal or dealing with injury, linebacker Chuck Hicks was the only player to opt out of the game for the Tigers.

Missouri did have two of its best offensive players declare for the NFL draft though in right tackle Armand Membou and wide receiver Luther Burden III.

Missouri will also be thinner with defensive end depth against Iowa, with true freshmen Williams Nwaneri and Jaylen Brown both entering the transfer portal.

Overall, Missouri will be without players that finished the regular season as starters — Membou, Burden and tight end Brett Norfleet (surgery).
