As expected, the Carolina Panthers’ injury report from Thursday looked a lot cleaner than the one from Wednesday.
After holding out eight players from yesterday’s session, the Panthers got a handful of their men back this afternoon—including wideout DJ Chark, tight end Hayden Hurst, right tackle Taylor Moton and cornerback Troy Hill.
Among those still out were were receiver Laviska Shenault Jr., who sustained an ankle injury against the Miami Dolphins in Week 6, and outside linebacker Justin Houston, who is dealing with a hamstring issue.
