Panthers release initial depth chart for Week 13 matchup vs. Rams

The Carolina Panthers released the initial depth chart for their Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams this afternoon. But it’s highly likely, and almost certain, that it’ll look at least a bit different in just a few days’ time.

Here, in an identical snapshot from Week 12, is the first look . . .

Carolina, following a painful loss to the San Francisco 49ers last night, will enter the week with a new slew of injuries to monitor.

Head coach Dave Canales announced this afternoon that cornerback Jaycee Horn, who recorded a pair of interceptions on Monday, and inside linebacker Claudin Cherelus are currently in concussion protocol. The status of guard Chandler Zavala (calf) is uncertain as well.

Canales also stated that cornerback Corey Thornton sustained a broken fibula during the 20-9 defeat. The rookie is set to undergo surgery and will miss the remainder of the campaign.
