Top Panthers News

  • Panthers' Zakee Wheatley: Secures interception in loss

    Wheatley recorded seven total tackles (four solo) and an interception during Thursday night's 27-19 loss to the Packers.

    Wheatley was able to secure a career-high seven stops while his biggest play of the game came in the fourth quarter when he picked off a deep pass from Packers quarterback Jordan Love. The interception was the first of the Wheatley's career, and the rookie has now compiled 26 total tackles (19 solo), four passes defensed and a forced fumble over six contests during the 2026 campaign.

  • Panthers' Brady Christensen: Has practice window opened

    Christensen (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday.

    Christensen has been rehabbing from a hamstring injury all season and has yet to play in a game. The Panthers will now have 21 days to activate him from IR, otherwise he won't be eligible to suit up this season. If Christensen does indeed return, he could be moved into a starting role.

  • Panthers' Jonathon Brooks: Spotted doing rehab work Tuesday

    Brooks (core) was seen working off to the side during the Panthers' unofficial practice Tuesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    The Panthers haven't yet opened Brooks' 21-day practice window, but that might happen soon after head coach Dave Canales said Monday that the young running back would "potentially" be designated for return from injured reserve this week. Brooks hasn't played since Week 2 after undergoing core-muscle surgery, so he'll likely need to turn in multiple full practices before the Panthers are comfortable clearing him for game action. Once he's activated from IR, Brooks will likely handle a supporting role out of the backfield behind starter Chubba Hubbard.

  • Panthers' Will Lee: Day to day

    Lee (hamstring) is day to day but should have a chance to "test" his injury this week, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Lee suffered the hamstring injury during Carolina's loss to Green Bay on Thursday night. The fourth-round pick has played a starting role for the Panthers in the wake of injuries to corners Jaycee Horn (quadriceps), Mike Jackson (groin) and Akayleb Evans (triceps).

  • Panthers' Jaelan Phillips: Trends toward return

    Phillips (hamstring) is considered day-to-day, Joe Person of The Athletic reported Monday.

    Phillips has not practiced since aggravating a hamstring injury in the Panthers' Week 6 win over the Eagles. The linebacker is steadily recovering and enters Week 9 prep as a potential day-to-day practice participant. If Phillips can suit up this Sunday, he will be faced with the Broncos' dominant offensive line in his return.

  • Panthers' Darren Waller: Makes one catch in Week 8

    Waller corralled one of two targets for 11 yards during last Thursday's 27-19 loss at Green Bay.

    Waller has been hit or miss from a fantasy perspective this season, with two touchdown grabs in Week 2 in Atlanta and a 50-yard TD catch in Week 7 against the Buccaneers serving as the notable performances. Otherwise, he has one 50-yard effort in his five other appearances, sitting on a 15-209-3 line on 25 targets on the season. Waller next takes aim at the tough Broncos defense this coming Sunday.

  • Panthers' Xavier Legette: Could resume practicing in Week 8

    Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Monday that Legette (knee) will "potentially" be designated for return from injured reserve this week, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Canales noted that Legette still has some checkpoints he needs to hit in his recovery process before getting the green light to practice, but the third-year wideout appears to have at least progressed on some level since landing on IR on Oct. 3. Before getting hurt, Legette had served as the Panthers' No. 3 wideout during the first two weeks of the season and produced a 2-64-0 receiving line on six targets between those contests.

  • Panthers' Jonathon Brooks: Could start practicing soon

    Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Monday that Brooks (core) will "potentially" be designated for return from injured reserve this week, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Canales noted that Brooks still has some checkpoints he needs to hit in his recovery process before getting the green light to practice, but the running back looks to have at least made progress on some level since undergoing core-muscle surgery Sept. 23. The running back has already spent more than four games on IR and will be eligible to be added back to the 53-man roster whenever the Panthers deem him healthy. Once activated, Brooks will likely have to settle for a change-of-pace role behind lead back Chubba Hubbard.

  • Panthers' Brycen Tremayne: Held to one reception in Week 8 loss

    Tremayne finished with an 11-yard reception on his lone target in Thursday's 27-19 loss to the Packers.

    Tremayne took the field for 19 of the Panthers' 73 percent snaps on offense, with his 26-percent share marking his lowest rate since Week 2. The 26-year-old appears to have been passed up on the depth chart at receiver by John Metchie, who logged 33 snaps Thursday and has now had higher playing-time shares than Tremayne for three straight weeks.

  • Panthers' John Metchie: Three receptions in loss

    Metchie recorded three receptions for 14 yards on three targets in Thursday's 27-19 loss to the Packers.

    Metchie took the field for 33 of the Panthers' 73 snaps on offense, placing him behind Tetairoa McMillan (65 snaps) and Jalen Coker (63) but ahead of Brycen Tremayne (19) and David Moore (zero) among Carolina receivers. Though he's now drawn at least three targets in five straight games, Metchie has found the end zone just once and is averaging 22.8 receiving yards per contest during that stretch.

  • Panthers' David Moore: Relegated to special teams

    Moore didn't receive any playing time on offense and logged two snaps on special teams in Thursday's 27-19 loss to the Packers.

    After logging a season-high 13 snaps on offense a week earlier in the Panthers' blowout loss to the Buccaneers, Moore's playing time was contained to special teams while Carolina leaned exclusively on Tetaiora McMillan, Jalen Coker, Brycen Tremayne and John Metchie at receiver.
