Carolina Panthers wideout Robby Anderson has had a 2021 to forget. So maybe closing up shop a tad early may not be the worst idea.
That could be the case on Sunday, as Anderson is officially listed as questionable for the Week 18 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The sixth-year receiver, who did not participate in practice throughout the week due to a quad injury, will be a game-time decision according to head coach Matt Rhule.
Here’s the rest of the final injury report for the regular-season finale:
| Injury | Wed. | Thurs. | Fri. | Game status | |
| WR Robby Anderson | Quad | DNP | DNP | DNP | Questionable |
| CB Stephon Gilmore | Groin | DNP | – | – | |
| S Sean Chandler | Groin | DNP | DNP | DNP | Doubtful |
| DE Yetur Gross-Matos | Illness | DNP | – | – | |
| WR Shi Smith | Illness | DNP | – | – | |
| CB CJ Henderson | Knee | Limited | Limited | Limited | – |
| DT Derrick Brown | Elbow | – | Limited | Limited | Questionable |
The statuses of Gilmore, Gross-Matos and Smith—who all remain on the reserve/COVID-19 list as of Friday—are obviously unknown to this point. Don’t, however, expect to see Gilmore in what could be his final week with the team as he continues to nurse a groin strain.
