Panthers’ Adam Thielen, Ikem Ekwonu held out from practice again on Thursday

Both WR Adam Thielen and LT Ikem Ekwonu were held out for the second straight practice session.

The Carolina Panthers were still without two notable names on offense this afternoon.

Wide receiver Adam Thielen and left tackle Ikem Ekwonu were both held out of practice for the second straight outing. Thielen hasn’t played since injuring his hamstring in Week 3 while Ekwonu, who missed his first NFL game this past Sunday, is dealing with an ankle issue.

If Ekwonu cannot go, fourth-year offensive lineman Brady Christensen is expected to get the start on the blindside against the New York Giants this weekend.
