Carolina Panthers Injury History & Analysis

The Panthers on Wednesday placed both their starting corners on IR. Jaycee Horn suffered a torn quad in Sunday's loss to the Browns, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He has sought second opinions this week. Jackson injured his groin in the same game. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler says the team is hoping to get Jackson back "some time in November." Carolina's next four games land in October, surrounding a Week 5 bye. So it sounds like there's a chance Jackson misses only the minimum before getting reactivated.

Panthers CB Mike Jackson left Sunday's game at Cleveland with a groin injury. The team ruled him out, which doesn't bode well for his Week 4 outlook. Carolina gets a home clash with the Lions before a Week 5 bye. That could factor into the timing of Jackson's return.

The Panthers have ruled LB Devin Lloyd (calf) and S Nick Scott (rib) out for Sunday's game against the Browns. Both guys missed practice all week, which puts Week 4 in question as well. We'll check their statuses next week.
