| Oct 25 |
Incoom sustained a calf injury quickly after taking over for Jaelan Phillips (hamstring) during Sunday's game. The reserve linebacker will not return to the contest, but Phillips already has resumed his role as the primary weakside linebacker. |
Cam JacksonDT · Oct 13Shoulder · Surgery · Back Feb 15, 2027 · Oct 13 | Injured Reserve | Shoulder · Surgery | Feb 15, 2027 | Jackson will miss the remainder of the campaign after undergoing shoulder surgery. He was also nursing a knee injury and will now shift his focus to getting healthy for the 2027 campaign. |
Jonathon BrooksRB · 5d agoAbdomen · Surgery · Back Nov 8 · 5d ago | Injured Reserve | Abdomen · Surgery | Nov 8 | Brooks appears to be making incremental progress in his recovery from core muscle surgery, though he wasn't in uniform Thursday and has yet to be cleared for participation in practice drills while he remains on injured reserve. The 2024 second-round pick has suited up for just five of a possible 38 regular-season games in his career and will miss a minimum of two additional games before he's eligible to return, though his absence could linger beyond then. Chuba Hubbard has worked as the clear lead back for the Panthers, with AJ Dillon (ankle) siphoning off less work than Brooks had been prior to getting hurt. |
Akayleb EvansCB · Oct 6Oct 6 | Active | — | — | Evans stepped into a starting role at cornerback after Mike Jackson (groin) and Jaycee Horn (quadriceps) were both placed on injured reserve. The 27-year-old led the team in takedowns, and he'll likely operate in a starting role again Week 6 against the Eagles. |
Albert Reese IVOT · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Bryce YoungQB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Young's pair of scoring tosses went to Tommy Tremble from 12 and 19 yards out in the second and fourth quarters, respectively. The 2023 first overall pick's multi-touchdown effort was his fourth of the season, and Young hasn't thrown for fewer than Sunday's total in any of his five games while also generating a stellar 11:2 TD:INT. Young and the Panthers next take aim at the Buccaneers defense when Tampa Bay pays a visit for a Week 7 divisional showdown on Sunday. |
Brycen TremayneWR · Oct 5Oct 5 | Active | — | — | Tremayne actually led all Panthers wide receivers with 69 offensive snaps, and that extra playing time was largely due to the absence of Jalen Coker (quadriceps). Even with the elevated snap count, Sunday's game was the Tetairoa McMillan show, with the second-year wideout finishing with a 14-192-2 line on 16 targets. After not seeing a target from Bryce Young in the first two games of the season, Tremayne has turned nine targets into six catches for 115 yards over the Panthers' last two contests. Carolina is on a bye for Week 5, and Tremayne's role likely will shrink against the Eagles in Week 6 if Coker is cleared to return. |
Chuba HubbardRB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Hubbard thoroughly dominated the Panthers' ground attack with AJ Dillon (ankle) sidelined and finished with his highest rushing workload of the campaign. Hubbard also hit the 120-yard mark on the ground for the second straight contest, and he added his fourth rush TD on a one-yard run early in the fourth quarter. After combining for 102 rushing yards in his first two games of the season, Hubbard has run for 324 yards at 4.8 yards per carry and added a 6-36-0 receiving line over the subsequent trio of contests heading into a Week 7 home divisional clash with the Buccaneers on Sunday. |
Damien LewisG · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Lewis was diagnosed with a UCL tear in his elbow following the Panthers' Week 3 loss to the Browns. He was sidelined for Week 4 against the Lions, but with extra rest thanks to the Week 5 bye, Lewis has been cleared to return for Sunday's game. He'll reclaim his starting role at left guard from Corey Bullock. |
Darren WallerTE · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Waller dealt with a toe injury during the practice week and ended up playing behind both Tommy Tremble and Mitchell Evans in this one, as Tremble was the big producer in the box score, catching a pair of red-zone touchdowns. Waller is one of the many touchdown-or-bust fantasy options at the tight end position. |
Devin LloydLB · Oct 6Oct 6 | Active | — | — | Lloyd was on the field for all 71 of the Panthers' defensive snaps in his return to action after missing Week 3 with a calf injury. The linebacker finished second on the team in takedowns behind cornerback Akayleb Evans (11), notching at least nine tackles for his third straight game. Lloyd has now compiled 31 total tackles (21 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and added two interceptions and a defensive touchdown over his first three regular-season contests with Carolina. |
Haynes KingQB · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Ja'Tavion SandersTE · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Jaelan PhillipsLB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Phillips exited the first half of Sunday's game with a hamstring injury before returning in the third quarter. The weakside linebacker's replacement, Thomas Incoom (calf), exited the game shortly after Phillips and has been ruled out. |
Jalen CokerWR · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Making his return from a one-game absence due to a quadriceps injury, Coker picked up right where he left off while tying for the team lead in receptions and setting the pace in both receiving yards and targets. He also had a game-long 32-yard catch, and he now has at least six grabs in three of his first four games. With a 24-319-2 line through four contests, the speedy third-year wideout is well on his way to setting new career bests as he heads into a Week 7 home matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday. |
Ryan FitzgeraldPK · 20h ago20h ago | Active | — | — | Fitzgerald converted field-goal attempts from 47 and 52 yards but continues to struggle with PATs. The kicker missed two extra-point attempts in Week 4 against the Lions as well. Fitzgerald remains a perfect 11-for-11 on field-goal attempts while dropping to 11-for-15 on extra points through five contests in the 2026 regular season. |
Taylor MotonOT · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Moton was activated from the reserve/non-football illness list Saturday, and he's been cleared to make his 2026 debut Sunday after fully recovering from blood clots in his lungs. He figures to start at right tackle Sunday, especially with Monroe Freeling (knee) inactive. |
TeRah EdwardsDT · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Tershawn WhartonDT · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Wharton opened the regular season on the reserve/PUP list while recovering from neck surgery that he underwent in May. He was activated from the PUP list Saturday, and the seventh-year pro has been cleared to make his 2026 debut Sunday. |
Tetairoa McMillanWR · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | McMillan tied for the team lead in receptions with Jalen Coker while finishing second to his talented position mate in receiving yards and targets. The 2025 first-round pick was coming off a career-best 14-catch, 192-yard performance that also included two touchdowns against the Lions back in Week 4, and he's gone for at least 75 receiving yards in four of his first five games of the campaign as a Week 7 home divisional showdown against the Buccaneers approaches. |
Tommy TrembleTE · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Tremble played 54 snaps to Mitchell Evans' 43 and Darren Waller's 36, and Tremble ran the most routes of the trio. His touchdowns were both of the red-zone variety, as he scored from 12 and 19 yards out. The tight end entered Sunday with 11 catches for 82 yards on 15 targets, so he's not worth chasing in fantasy ahead of next Sunday's date with the Bucs. |
Torricelli Simpkins IIIG · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Trevor EtienneRB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Etienne was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the second-year running back has been cleared to make his 2026 debut Sunday after missing the first four games of the regular season due to an ankle injury. He could operate as the Panthers' RB2 behind Chuba Hubbard, given the absences of both AJ Dillon (ankle) and Jonathon Brooks (abdomen, IR). |
