Jaycee Horn - Records six tackles SundayHorn logged six total tackles (all solo) and defended one pass in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Bears.

ImpactHorn has now recorded six-or-more stops in three of the Panthers' last four games, bringing his season total up to 23 tackles. He's on pace to easily break his previous best of 53 total tackles in one season and remains one of the few bright spots on a Carolina defense that ranks last in the NFL in points allowed per game (33). Expect Horn to continue producing as the Panthers host the Falcons in Week 6.

Charles Harris - Logs sack vs. BearsHarris recorded three total tackles (all solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Bears.

ImpactHarris was the only Panther to record a sack in the Carolina's Week 5 loss, bringing down Caleb Williams for an eight-yard loss in the first quarter. The 2017 first-round pick has appeared in four games since signing with Carolina after Week 1, recording eight total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, across 167 defensive snaps. Expect Harris to continue serving as one of the Panthers' top edge rushers as the Falcons travel to Carolina in Week 6.

Xavier Legette - Doesn't expect to miss timeLegette (shoulder) said Monday he expects to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Falcons, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

ImpactLegette is set to undergo imaging tests Monday to determine whether he sustained an AC joint injury while being forced out of Week 5's loss to the Bears, but the rookie first-round pick doesn't anticipate having to miss any time. Nonetheless, fantasy managers will want to monitor Legette's practice activity leading up to Week 6 action. If Legette is able to practice in at least a limited capacity Wednesday, it will bode well for his chances of suiting up versus Atlanta.

Taylor Moton - Considered week-to-weekMoton (triceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer reports.

ImpactMoton exited Week 5 with the injury and was unable to return. His week-to-week status suggests he could return in Week 7 against the Commanders. Yosh Nijman will likely fill in for Moton at right tackle against Atlanta.

Austin Corbett - Done for seasonCorbett tore his biceps in Sunday's loss to the Bears and will be out for the season, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

ImpactCorbett missed a significant portion of his 2023 season due to a knee injury and will suffer the same fate again in 2024. The veteran center will presumably undergo surgery to repair his bicep, although that isn't guaranteed, and placed on iR. Brady Christensen will likely handle the starting center role for the Panthers moving forward.

Blowout loss to Bears another reminder of just badly the Panthers botched 2023 trade for Bryce Young

Sunday's game served as yet another unneeded reminder for the Carolina Panthers of just how badly they botched the trade for Bryce Young in 2023 — and how far back it has set the f...

Xavier Legette - Getting AC joint testedLegette (shoulder) said Monday he is expected to undergo imaging tests on his AC Joint, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

ImpactLegette was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Bears with a shoulder injury, and it appears the Panthers are concerned about the possibility of an AC joint injury. The results of Monday's imaging tests will reveal more about the rookie first-round pick's expected recovery timetable, though it's possible Carolina won't offer an actionable update until Wednesday's first official injury report of Week 6. In the event that Legette isn't cleared to face the Falcons on Sunday, Oct. 13, Jalen Coker will get a chance to work alongside Diontae Johnson and Jonathan Mingo in three-wide sets.
