The Carolina Panthers were missing two of their most important offensive players at today’s practice. Both left tackle Russell Okung and running back Christian McCaffrey did not participate.
Here is the team’s updated injury report for Week 15.

RB Christian McCaffrey | Quad | Limited | DNP | ||
OT Russell Okung | Calf | Limited | DNP | ||
S Tre Boston | Hamstring | Limited | Limited | ||

Coach Matt Rhule still says he doesn’t expect McCaffrey to play against the Packers, but he hasn’t ruled him out as of yet. If Okung can’t go, the team will actually be starting Trent Scott at left tackle instead of Greg Little.
On the bright side, wide receiver D.J. Moore was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list. Rhule expects him to play.
