There are two things the Carolina Panthers have in spades this season—losses and injuries. And on Wednesday, they stacked up another one of the latter.
As first reported by ESPN senior NFL insider Adam Schefter, safety Jeremy Chinn sustained a “significant” quad injury that could keep him out up to six weeks. If true, Carolina will be down yet another key player on defense—with fellow safeties Vonn Bell and Xavier Woods as well as cornerback Jaycee Horn and linebacker Shaq Thompson also dealing with their own setbacks.
Here are how distraught Panthers fans reacted to the latest gut punch:

That's a lot of key players to be down 6 games into the season.— Jarrett (J-ŘõÇK) (@Jdcostin910) October 18, 2023

Chinn has played less than 30% of the snaps this year! I’m more mad we can’t trade him, than him actually playing!

Chinn said, oh y’all tryna trade me? https://t.co/20GvLtuBAt pic.twitter.com/UtagigBgkI

Just when you think things can’t get any worse for the #Panthers, the football gods step in and say hold my beer.

Chinn had his best year at LB and we put him everywhere but there 🤣
