Panthers CB Jaycee Horn out vs. Buccaneers in Week 7

In somewhat of a shocker, the Carolina Panthers announced that cornerback Jaycee Horn will not be active for today’s matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Horn, who missed last Sunday’s loss to the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams, has been dealing with an injury to his ribs. The second-year defender was limited during the first two practices of the week, but returned in full for the third and final session on Friday.

Luckily for the defense, they will have cornerback Donte Jackson and linebacker Frankie Luvu up against Tom Brady’s bunch. Luvu, who is tied for the second-highest tackle total on the team, had not played in Carolina’s previous two games due to a shoulder issue.

The offense, as expected, will not have usual starting quarterback Baker Mayfield in uniform. As he continues to heal from a high-ankle sprain, PJ Walker will get his second straight nod with Jacob Eason as his backup.

Here’s who will be on the sideline for the Panthers in Week 7:

  • DE Henry Anderson
  • CB Jaycee Horn
  • DT Matt Ioannidis
  • QB Baker Mayfield
  • LB Chandler Wooten

As for the Bucs’ inactives:

  • TE Cameron Brate
  • CB Carlton Davis
  • DL Akiem Hicks
  • OL Fred Johnson
  • WR Julio Jones
  • CB Sean Murphy-Bunting
  • QB Kyle Trask
