Fantasy Impact

Canales was not ready to commit yet to Hunt being ready for Week 18 against the Bucs. His status will need to continue to be monitored in practice.

Panthers coach Dave Canales said he would not rule out Robert Hunt returning against the Bucs in Week 18.

Fantasy Impact

Hunt was designated to return from IR last week. He has been sidelined due to a torn bicep since September. Carolina and Tampa Bay will be playing for the division in Week 18.

Robert Hunt (arm) will be placed on injured reserve with a torn bicep.

Fantasy Impact

Hunt has been diagnosed with a torn bicep and will undergo surgery to repair it. He is being placed on injured reserve and will miss an extended period of time, likely the remainder of the season. The Panthers are also placing center Austin Corbett (knee) on injured reserve, so their offensive line is set to take a significant hit and be weak for the foreseeable future.

Robert Hunt is not on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Fantasy Impact

Hunt was limited at practice all week. He'll be good to go for Sunday's season opener as the Panthers offense looks to pick up where they left off last season.
