Some notes
—
Of the four players the Panthers listed out of practice on Wednesday, running back Miles Sanders (ankle) was the only player to remain out on Thursday. Left guard Damien Lewis (illness) and outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (knee) returned to practice and were limited. Wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) has been cleared to play after being out of action for the last seven games, and he remained limited. The Panthers only opened up the practice window for linebacker Amare Barno (knee) on Wednesday, and it’s not a good sign that he did not practice on Thursday after participating Wednesday. It appears that rookie running back Jonathon Brooks (knee), who was a full participant both days, is trending in the right direction to make his NFL debut against the Chiefs on Sunday. Carolina added kicker Eddy Pineiro (left knee) and outside linebacker DJ Wonnum (quad) to their injury report as limited participants.
