The Panthers have dealt with injuries all season, so it’s fitting that their last injury report of the year is as long as it is.
Here’s how the Week 17 report is shaping up.
| Player | Injury | Wed | Thu | Fri | Status |
| WR D.J. Moore | Concussion | DNP | DNP | ||
| LB Shaq Thompson | Ankle/Foot | DNP | DNP | Out | |
| DT Gerald McCoy | Knee | DNP | Full | ||
| DE Marquis Haynes | Knee | DNP | DNP | ||
| LB Andre Smith | Ankle | DNP | Full | ||
| TE Ian Thomas | Ankle | Limited | Full | ||
| S Tre Boston | Shoulder | Limited | Limited | ||
| DE Brian Burns | Shoulder | Limited | Full | ||
| TE Greg Olsen | Knee | Limited | Limited | ||
| DT Kyle Love | Ankle | Limited | Full | ||
| DT Woodrow Hamilton | Illness | Full | Full |
There was no practice on Wednesday because of the holiday, so those are unofficial designations.
Assuming Moore doesn’t play, we should see more of wide receivers like Chris Hogan and Brandon Zylstra. Offensive coordinator Scott Turner told the media today replacing Moore will be a group effort.
We definitely won’t see Thompson, who has already been ruled out for Sunday’s game. That means Jermaine Carter Jr. should get another chance to prove himself against the Saints.
