Is Adam Thielen playing today? Injury updates for the Panthers WR in Week 13

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen should be ready to go for today’s NFC South showdown at Bank of America Stadium.

Thielen, who remained on this week’s injury report due to his hamstring strain, was not listed with a game designation for the team’s Week 13 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was considered a non-participant for practice on Wednesday, a full participant on Thursday and a limited participant on Friday.

The 34-year-old returned to the field in last Sunday’s contest against the Kansas City Chiefs after missing seven games with his hamstring injury. He reeled in three receptions for 57 yards in the 30-27 loss to the defending Super Bowl champions.

Carolina, however, will not have fellow wideout Jalen Coker and tight end Ja’Tavion Sanders. Coker will miss his second straight game with a quadriceps injury while Sanders, who was carted off from the Week 12 defeat to the Chiefs, is down with a neck injury.
