The Carolina Panthers are just a little over an hour away from trying to do something they haven't done since late November/early December of 2022 - win back-to-back games.

It won't be an easy chore as the Panthers will be without starting left guard Damien Lewis (elbow) and right guard Robert Hunt (hip) is active but not at 100%. Carolina Defensive lineman A'Shawn Robinson (knee) and wide receiver Diontae Johnson (groin) were each listed as questionable on Friday's injury report but will both dress and give it a go.

Moments ago, both teams released their list of inactives for this afternoon's game.
