The Panthers need every bit of help they can get against the Chiefs this week. That’s why Jeremy Chinn’s presence on the injury report is so concerning. Chinn sat out Wednesday’s practice, but he was upgraded to a limited participant today.
Here is the team’s updated Week 9 injury report.
Player | Inury | Wed | Thu | Fri | Status |
LB/DB Jeremy Chinn | Knee | DNP | Limited | ||
OT Russell Okung | Calf | Limited | Limited | ||
DT Zach Kerr | Toe | Limited | Full | ||
CB Donte Jackson | Toe | Full | Full | ||
CB Corn Elder | Neck | Limited | Full | ||
QB Teddy Bridgewater | Neck | Full | Full | ||
DE Marquis Haynes | Shoulder | – | DNP | ||
TE Chris Manhertz | Shoulder | – | Full |
If Chinn can’t play, the Panthers will take a by-committee approach to replacing the multiple roles he fills defensively.
Starting left tackle Russell Okung remains a limited participant due to his calf injury. Carolina will also need him in the lineup to help contain Chiefs defensive end Frank Clark.
