As expected, the Carolina Panthers will be without a few key offensive pieces in Munich, Germany this weekend.
Left tackle Ikem Ekwonu and wide receiver Adam Thielen, both of whom were listed as non-participants in practice all week, have been ruled out of Sunday’s matchup against the New York Giants. Ekwonu (ankle) will miss his second straight contest while Thielen (hamstring) will miss his seventh.
Fourth-year offensive lineman Brady Christensen, as he did in the Week 9 win over the New Orleans Saints, will get the start on the blindside in place of Ekwonu.
Thielen, meanwhile, has until Wednesday to be activated to the main roster.
