Top Panthers News

  • Panthers' Vonn Bell: Gets back on field

    Bell (shoulder) was a limited participant during practice Wednesday.

    Bell missed the team's loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday after logging three consecutive DNPs leading into the weekend, so his return to the field is ultimately a step in the right direction. However, Bell should still likely be considered questionable for Week 14 against the Saints and may need to up his activity level in practice as the week goes on to increase his chances of suiting up.

  • Panthers' Stephen Sullivan: Injury still lingers

    Sullivan (shoulder) was a limited participant during practice Wednesday.

    Sullivan dealt with a shoulder injury earlier in the season but has been playing through it and has remained absent from the team's injury reports. It's not clear if this is a new injury or something the LSU product aggravated during Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. Either way, Sullivan will continue working to get healthy and suit up in Week 14 against the Saints.

  • Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Still hampered by injury

    Tremble (hip) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.

    Tremble missed the Panthers' loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday due to the injury, which is still hindering him as Week 14 prep begins. However, the 23-year-old still has Thursday and Friday to ramp up his activity level and be ready for the team's next game against the Saints, which could see him have a prominent role on offense due to the number of injuries in the Panthers' tight end group.

  • Panthers' Hayden Hurst: Limited in return to practice

    Hurst (concussion) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

    Hurst so far has sat out three games due to a concussion, but he was spotted in a red non-contact jersey in his return to practice Wednesday. His return to the field represents a sign of progress in his quest through the five-step concussion protocol, and he'll have two more chances to practice this week and potentially get closer to gaining clearance from an independent neurologist. Fellow tight ends Tommy Tremble (hip) and Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) also were limited participants to begin Week 14 prep, leaving just Ian Thomas as the Panthers' healthy option at the position on the active roster.

  • Panthers' Ihmir Smith-Marsette: Logs season-high 12 snaps

    Smith-Marsette played 12 of the Panthers' 72 snaps on offense and went without a target in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Since being acquired from the Chiefs shortly before Week 1, Smith-Marsette has suited up in all 12 of the Panthers' games while serving as the team's top punt returner. Though most of the value he provides to Carolina comes through his contributions on special teams, Smith-Marsette has started to see a slight uptick in playing time on offense at receiver while the Panthers have made Terrace Marshall a healthy inactive the past three weeks. The 12 snaps Smith-Marsette picked up Sunday represented a season-high total.

  • Panthers' Hayden Hurst: Practicing without contact

    Hurst (concussion) is practicing Wednesday in a red non-contact jersey, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Hurst is progressing through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol but will likely need to take part in at least one full-contact practice Thursday or Friday to have a chance to play Sunday against the Saints. He has missed the last three games due to the concussion, and Carolina has gotten minimal production in Hurst's absence from its other tight ends (Tommy Tremble, Ian Thomas and Stephen Sullivan).

  • Panthers' Frankie Luvu: Leads team in tackles

    Luvu logged seven tackles (three solo) and a pass selection during Carolina's 21-17 loss to Tampa Bay on Sunday.

    Luvu had another solid outing as he tied Marquis Haynes for the most tackles recorded on the team. The 27-year-old has compiled 90 tackles (51 solo) through 12 games and is currently on pace to set a new career high.

  • Panthers' Marquis Haynes: Logs season high in tackles

    Haynes registered seven tackles (five solo), including a sack, in Carolina's 21-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Haynes had his most productive game of the season, leading the team in tackles while also logging his first sack of the season. The 29-year-old will now look to keep producing after missing nine of the team's first 10 games due to a back injury.

  • Panthers' Xavier Woods: Snags pick versus Tampa Bay

    Woods recorded three tackles (one solo), a pass deflection and an interception in Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Woods had a solid outing during Carolina's loss as he managed to snag his first interception of the season. The 2017 sixth-round pick will now look to build upon this strong performance during the upcoming matchup versus the Saints.

  • Panthers' Justin McCray: Joins active roster

    The Panthers signed McCray to their active roster Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    The veteran offensive lineman has appeared in three games for the Panthers' this season, starting at left guard in Week 13. Over the course of his seven-year career, McCray has spent time with the Packers, Browns, Falcons, Texans and Panthers, making 30 career starts. He'll likely remain Carolina's starting left guard as the season progresses.
