  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Sidelined for Wednesday's practice

    Wharton (hamstring) didn't participate in Carolina's practice Wednesday.

    Wharton remains sidelined with the hamstring injury that has held him out of the last two games. The 27-year-old will likely need to practice at some point this week in order to have a chance to play in Sunday's matchup versus the Seahawks. Bobby Brown would get another start at defensive end if Wharton ends up being unable to play.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Won't play in Week 16

    Wharton (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers.

    The first-year Panther didn't practice all week due to a hamstring injury, so it's no surprise that he won't suit up for Sunday's contest. Wharton is one of Carolina's top interior defensive linemen, recording 36 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, over nine appearances this season. While he's sidelined, expect Bobby Brown to start alongside A'Shawn Robinson and Derrick Brown.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Logs DNP on Wednesday

    Wharton (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    The 27-year-old was sidelined for Carolina's Week 15 loss to the Saints due to a hamstring issue, and Wednesday's DNP suggest he's still dealing with the issue. Wharton has been impactful in his first season with the Panthers, recording 36 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and one pass defensed across nine contests. He likely needs to upgrade to at least limited practice Thursday or Friday in order to play in Sunday's divisional matchup against the Buccaneers.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Dealing with hamstring issue

    Wharton (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Saints, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    The 27-year-old was added to the Panthers' injury report Saturday with a hamstring issue, putting his availability for Sunday's divisional matchup in question. Wharton has helped fortify Carolina's defensive line in his first season with the team, recording 36 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and one pass defensed across nine appearances. If he's unable to play in Week 15, Bobby Brown will likely have an expanded role with the Panthers' first-team defense.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Past knee injury

    Wharton (knee) was a full participant in Friday's practice, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    A knee injury limited Wharton's participation in Thursday's practice, but his ability to practice fully puts him on track to play against the 49ers on Monday. The sixth-year pro has accumulated 29 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one pass defense across seven regular-season games.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Limited Thursday

    Wharton (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    The defensive lineman played 86 percent of the defensive snaps last week against Atlanta, so the injury appears to be new. Wharton will have two more days to get on the practice field ahead of Monday's matchup with the 49ers. If he can't go, Bobby Brown might be next man up on the defensive line.
