Carolina Panthers
For a short week, a clean injury report like this is a blessing for the Panthers. Look for Jairus Byrd and Colin Jones to split time as they did last week, with Jones manning the safety spot in running situations and Byrd on obvious passing downs in relief of Kurt Coleman as he gets healthy from the MCL sprain suffered last week at New England. Tyler Larsen will get the start for the fourth straight week for an offensive line group that Pro Football Focus called the second-best offensive line in the league.

Head coach Ron Rivera was fairly straightforward with who would and wouldn’t play after today’s practice. With this being a short week, there are players missing practice today that would have been out there on the Thursday of a normal week. However, most players say that they’re still recovering from Sunday on Tuesday, so it’s no surprise a player like Jonathan Stewart isn’t playing.
| Player | Injury | Practice Participation | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mario Addison | Knee | None | |
| James Bradberry | Calf | None | According to Rivera, “should be good” for Thursday. |
| Kurt Coleman | Knee | None | Will not Play Thursday |
| Demetrious Cox | Ankle | None | Will not Play Thursday |
| Devin Funchess | Knee | None | Coach Rivera says Funchess will play Thursday, was just very sore after physical game Sunday. |
| Ryan Kalil | Neck | None | Will not Play Thursday |
| Tyler Larsen | Shoulder | None | |
| Daryl Worley | Ankle | None | According to Rivera, “should be good” for Thursday. |
| Matt Kalil | Ankle | Limited | According to Rivera, “should be good” for Thursday. |
| Julius Peppers | Shoulder | Limited | |
| Cam Newton | Right Shoulder | Limited | Rivera said Newton threw normally today. Calling him limited is “The New Normal” |
| Jonathan Stewart | Ankle | Limited |

On a short week, teams don’t actually practice; teams are forced, however, to submit an injury report to the NFL of what a ‘simulated’ practice might look like and who might and might not practice. So take this table with a huge grain of salt. Actually, take the whole shaker.
| Player | Injury | Practice Participation | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mario Addison | Knee | None | |
| Kurt Coleman | Knee | None | |
| Demetrious Cox | Ankle | None | |
| Devin Funchess | Knee | None | |
| Matt Kalil | Ankle | None | |
| Ryan Kalil | Neck | None | |
| Tyler Larsen | Shoulder | None | |
| Julius Peppers | Shoulder | None | |
| Jonathan Stewart | Ankle | None | |
| Daryl Worley | Ankle | None | |
| Cam Newton | Right Shoulder | Limited | Even with no practice, Cam still limited. “The New Normal” |
