Carolina Panthers inactives: Jaycee Horn among three starters ruled out vs. Buccaneers
In the penultimate game of the 2024 season, the Carolina Panthers will be short a few starters and key players, particularly on the defensive side of the football.
Cornerback Jaycee Horn has been downgraded from doubtful to out after missing the entire week of practice with a hip injury. Linebacker Josey Jewell will miss his fourth game of the year as he's dealing with a concussion and quad injury. And then, on offense, right tackle Taylor Moton will be unavailable thanks to a knee.
Five of the six Panthers who were labeled as "questionable" on the final injury report of the week, LB Jadeveon Clowney (knee/elbow), WR Xavier Legette (hip/wrist), DL A'Shawn Robinson (knee/illness), LB D.J. Wonnum (shoulder/knee), and OL Damien Lewis (illness/ankle) have been cleared to play. Running back Chuba Hubbard was placed on injured reserve on Saturday, ending his season.
