Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young should have his safety net back here in Week 12.
According to head coach Dave Canales, wide receiver Adam Thielen (questionable) is expected to play in this Sunday's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs . The 11th-year veteran, who has missed the last seven games due to a hamstring injury , led the team in receptions (103) and receiving yards (1,014) in 2023.
Canales and crew are also expecting rookie running back Jonathon Brooks (questionable) to make his NFL debut in the contest. Brooks, Carolina's second-round selection from the 2024 draft, tore his ACL last November.
Kicker Eddy Piñeiro (questionable), per Canales, will suit up as well. Canales told reporters that Piñeiro tweaked his knee while celebrating his walk-off kick against the New York Giants in Week 10 .
