The Carolina Panthers held a regular practice on Thanksgiving as they gear up for their upcoming game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, the team is dealing with injuries to key players.
Defensive end Jadeveon Clowney missed his second consecutive practice due to a shoulder injury, while rookie wide receiver Jalen Coker and rookie tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders were also sidelined. Clowney's absence would be significant, especially after his standout performance last week.
With Clowney potentially out, DJ Johnson is likely to step in. The Panthers are also facing depth issues at tight end, with Ian Thomas on injured reserve and Tommy Tremble expected to start if Sanders cannot play.
