The Carolina Panthers released their first injury report of the week, and there are a few notable names on it.
Ekwonu was vague about the nature of his knee issue, but he said he considers himself day to day. Lewis is dealing with an illness, and assuming it’s something minor, there’s a decent chance both are able to give it a go against the Buccaneers on Sunday. Same goes for McMillan, who doesn’t seem to be dealing with anything major in regards to his ankle.
Other than that, it’s a mostly clean injury report. Wharton is still recovering from the hamstring strain he suffered tripping over a teammate’s foot in walkthrough on Saturday. Jaycee Horn and Taylor Moton should be safe bets to play on Sunday after limited practices. Trevin Wallace has been playing through a shoulder injury that is going to continue landing him on the injury report, but he’s clearly good to play through it. Moore is back at practice after he dislocated it in Week 4.
