All has not been lost for the Carolina Panthers’ defensive line in Week 3.
This afternoon’s matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders will already be missing Pro Bowler Derrick Brown and nose tackle Shy Tuttle. Brown, of course, had his season ended due to a meniscus tear he sustained in Week 1 while Tuttle, who was listed as doubtful on Friday’s injury report, was officially ruled out yesterday.
With those two down, the Carolina defense was left with just one opening-day starter from their line—A’Shawn Robinson. But Robinson, who was down as questionable after three limited practices this week, will be in uniform.
He should be joined in the trench by Jayden Peevy, Nick Thurman, LaBryan Ray and DeShawn Williams—who was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday.
Here are the six inactives for the Panthers here in Week 3:
- CB Shemar Bartholomew
- CB Tariq Castro-Fields
- G Jarrett Kingston
- C Andrew Raym
- TE Messiah Swinson
- DT Shy Tuttle
And for the host Raiders:
- LB Divine Deablo
- WR Ramel Keyton
- RB Dylan Laube
- WR Tyreik McAllister
- G Jordan Meredith
- CB Decamerion Richardson
