RB Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) is not expected to play in Sunday’s Week 11 contest against the Lions. The Panthers originally listed McCaffrey as out, but updated his game status to “not expected to play” minutes after. (Carolina Panthers on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact:

The Panthers have updated McCaffrey’s status from “ruled out” to “not expected to play” in Sunday’s game against the Lions. CMC needs additional time to recover from his shoulder injury and will most likely sit Week 11. The Panthers have a bye Week 13, it’s possible Carolina could rest their star RB until Week 14. Mike Davis will once again handle the Panthers’ backfield and is currently 14th among all running backs in the latest expert consensus rankings for Week 11.
