CHARLOTTE \u2014 The Panthers will be without three starters Thursday night against the Packers, as well as a key reserve.<\/p>\n

The Panthers ruled four players out on the final injury report of the week, which is largely a projection since all of this week’s practices were walk-throughs.<\/p>\n

That group includes outside linebacker Jaelan Phillips<\/a> (hamstring), who also missed last week’s game against the Buccaneers.<\/p>\n

Also listed as out on the final report of the week are left guard Damien Lewis<\/a> (knee), cornerback Akayleb Evans<\/a> (triceps\/knee), and backup offensive lineman Torricelli Simpkins III<\/a> (ankle).<\/p>\n

That leaves the Panthers with just seven healthy offensive linemen on the 53-man roster, and two healthy cornerbacks, pending any transactions that could come tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Defensive tackle Bobby Brown III<\/a> (hand) is listed as questionable, while none of the other players on the report have a game designation, meaning they’re good to go.<\/p>\n

That includes kicker Ryan Fitzgerald<\/a>, who was added to the report Wednesday with an illness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CHARLOTTE \u2014 The Panthers will be without three starters Thursday night against the Packers, as well as a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1015062,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2075],"tags":[79,235,260,134681,2567,7,55602,81,6,236],"class_list":["post-1039616","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-carolina-panthers","tag-app-news","tag-carolina","tag-carolina-panthers","tag-carolina-panthers-at-green-bay-packers-2026-reg-8","tag-carolinapanthers","tag-football","tag-injury-reports","tag-latest-news","tag-nfl","tag-panthers"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/117519880262867731","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1039616","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1039616"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1039616\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1015062"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1039616"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1039616"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1039616"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
