Panthers activate RB Miles Sanders, announce 4 other roster moves for Week 18

The Panthers are getting a much-needed boost at the running back position.

The Carolina Panthers are getting a much-needed boost in their backfield for Week 18.

As announced this afternoon, the team has activated running back Miles Sanders from injured reserve ahead of tomorrow’s regular-season finale against the Atlanta Falcons. The sixth-year veteran, who was designated to return to practice earlier in the week, has missed the last six games due to an ankle sprain.

Sanders last played in the Panthers’ Week 10 win over the New York Giants from Munich’s Allianz Arena. Over his 10 appearances in 2024, he’s rushed for 139 yards and a touchdown on 38 carries.

Carolina’s 48-14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the first outing after starting running back Chuba Hubbard’s placement on season-ending injured reserve, yielded a season-low 39 rushing yards. Return specialist Raheem Blackshear led the team with 20 rushing yards on eight attempts.

The Panthers also elevated outside linebackers Thomas Incoom and Kenny Dyson for Sunday’s contest. Fellow outside linebacker DJ Johnson, who sustained a concussion in a car accident on Thursday, will not be available.

Johnson will be joined on the shelf by another outside ‘backer in Amaré Barno, who was placed on injured reserve as part of today’s moves. Carolina signed defensive lineman DeShawn Williams from their practice squad to fill Barno’s void.

Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn will not be finishing out his Pro Bowl campaign.

Horn, who was officially named to his first Pro Bowl Games yesterday morning, has been ruled out for Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Atlanta Falcons due to his hip injury. The fourth-year defender also missed last week’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Inside linebacker Josey Jewell will also sit out of this weekend’s contest with a concussion. Like Horn, Jewell did not suit up for Week 17’s trip to Raymond James Stadium.

Panthers CB Jaycee Horn among 5 starters held out of Thursday’s practice

Newly-minted Pro Bowler Jaycee Horn did not participate for a second straight practice.

Unfortunately, a Pro Bowl selection does not come with magical healing powers.

Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn, fresh off being named to the 2025 Pro Bowl Games this morning, did not practice on Thursday due to a hip injury. Horn, who also sat out from Wednesday’s session, missed his first game of the 2024 season this past Sunday because of the setback.

Horn was joined on the side by fellow starters in right tackle Taylor Moton (rest), defensive lineman A’Shawn Robinson (neck), inside linebacker Josey Jewell (concussion) and outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (concussion).

Panthers hold 8 players out of practice on Wednesday

Jaycee Horn was among the eight Panthers who did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

While the Carolina Panthers are hoping to finish together, they may have to close out the campaign without a few key starters.

Eight players were listed as non-participants for Wednesday’s practice, one of the team’s last before this weekend’s regular-season finale against the Atlanta Falcons.

Starting cornerback Jaycee Horn, who continues to deal with a hip injury, was among the eight men who were out this afternoon. The former eighth overall pick, in his first absence of 2024, missed last week’s 48-14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers—where quarterback Baker Mayfield threw for 359 yards and five touchdowns.

Running back Miles Sanders, on the other hand, was able to get back to the practice field today after missing the last six games due to an ankle sprain. The Panthers officially designated his return prior to the session.

Here’s the full injury report from Wednesday:

The defense will definitely be down linebacker Josey Jewell and nickel cornerback Chau Smith-Wade, both of whom have already been ruled out.

Panthers announce 4 roster moves ahead of Week 13 matchup vs. Buccaneers

The Panthers have activated OLB Amaré Barno from the physically unable to perform list.

The Carolina Panthers made a handful of adjustments before their Week 13 clash with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

As announced on Saturday afternoon, the team has activated outside linebacker Amaré Barno from the physically unable to perform list. The third-year defender has not played since tearing his ACL in last season’s Week 16 loss to the Green Bay Packers.

Barno was selected by the Panthers in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL draft. The Blythewood, S.C. native has since gone on to appear in 24 games, amassing 30 combined tackles (three for a loss) and 2.0 sacks.

To make room for Barno on the active roster, the Panthers waived outside linebacker Thomas Incoom. Incoom played in seven games for Carolina this season, with 156 of his 194 total snaps coming on special teams.

The Panthers also elevated wide receiver Dan Chisena and tight end Stephen Sullivan from the practice squad. They’ll provide some depth in the absences of rookie pass catchers Jalen Coker and Ja’Tavion Sanders, both of whom were ruled out from the contest on Friday.

As expected, the Carolina Panthers will not have a couple of standout rookies for Week 13.

The team announced on Friday that wide receiver Jalen Coker and tight end Ja’Tavion Sanders are out for Sunday’s matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Panthers hold out 7 players from practice on Wednesday

Panthers rookie WR Jalen Coker, who sat out from the team’s Week 12 loss to the Chiefs, missed practice to start Week 13.

The Carolina Panthers remained without one of their most exciting playmakers on Wednesday.

After he was down as inactive for the team’s Week 12 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, wideout Jalen Coker did not participate in this afternoon’s practice due to his quadriceps injury. Head coach Dave Canales told reporters that he does not expect the rookie to play in this Sunday’s matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Joining Coker was fellow rookie and tight end Ja’Tavion Sanders. Sanders was carted off from Sunday’s game after injuring his neck.

Canales confirmed on Monday that the 21-year-old escaped a “pretty bad” injury, one that saw him land on the top of his head. He, per Canales, is also expected to sit this weekend.

Here’s the full injury report on the day:

Injury Wednesday Thursday Friday Game status
