Carolina Panthers

Fantasy Impact: As expected, the veteran was back at practice on Thursday after getting the day off on Wednesday as a veteran rest day. He should be a full go for Week 3 and will continue to have touchdown upside on a week-to-week basis moving forward.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran linebacker has been out for two-straight practices to start the week. His calf injury seems to be a real problem for him and could leave him sidelined against the Browns this week. If that's the case, Carolina's defense will be weaker than usual due to his absence.

Fantasy Impact: Jones seems to be on the right track for Week 3, as he has been a full participant at practice all week despite still dealing with a nagging back issue. He should be good to go for Sunday's game, but we that won't be official until sometime in the coming days.

Fantasy Impact: The big man was able to practice in a full capacity for a second-straight day on Thursday. It looks like he is going to be back in the lineup in Week 3, which will be a welcomed boost for Carolina's defensive front.

Fantasy Impact: Phillips returned to practice and was able to log a full session on Thursday after being absent on Wednesday due to a back issue. He should be good to go for Week 3, which is good news for Carolina's defense ahead of a favorable matchup against the Browns.

Xavier Legette (knee) missed Carolina's practice on Wednesday. (Source: Darin Gantt)

Fantasy Impact: Legette was a non-participant on Wednesday. He's dealing with a knee injury right now and was held out because of that. It remains to be seen if it will affect his availability for Sunday's game, but we should know more after practice on Friday.

Jalen Coker (ankle) didn't take part in practice on Thursday. (Source: Darin Gantt)

Fantasy Impact: Coker was held out of Thursday's practice due to his ankle injury that has been bothering him for a while. He was able to practice on Wednesday, though, so it seems like this may just be an injury management move from the part of the team. Fantasy managers should keep close tabs on updates about his status over the next 24 hours or so.

Jonathon Brooks (core) is expected to be sidelined for around 6-8 weeks. (Source: Joseph Person on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: The Panthers recently placed Brooks on injured reserve due to a core injury that he suffered last week. HC Dave Canales told reporters that he is expected to be sidelined for 6-8 weeks, which puts him in line for a return sometime in November. Chuba Hubbard is now expected to be Carolina's workhorse running back for the foreseeable future.

The Carolina Panthers D/ST had a big day against the Atlanta Falcons, holding them to just three points in the 34-3 victory, racking up two fumble recoveries, three interceptions, including a pick-six, and three sacks.

Fantasy Impact: The Falcons' QB situation has been dire the last two weeks between Cooper Rush and Jack Strand, and the Panthers' took full advantage. They'll get another potentially easy matchup against Cleveland next week, but the Browns bounced back in their own way after their season-opening loss to Jacksonville.

Ryan Fitzgerald made both of his field goal attempts and all four of his PATs in the Panthers' 34-3 rout of the Falcons on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Fitzgerald had himself a nice day, making a couple of short field goals and capitalizing on the Panthers' many touchdowns on the day. The team has scored 37 and 34 points in their first two games, and Fitz seems like a good bet to continue to have success.

Tetairoa McMillan caught 5 of 10 targets for 101 yards in the Panthers' 34-3 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: McMillan's ten targets led the team, with Jalen Coker falling close behind with nine. It's a bummer he didn't connect on more than five, as he could have had a much bigger day. He and Coker are forming a formidable receiving duo in Carolina, and both are startable every week.

Chuba Hubbard ran 12 times for 53 yards in the Panthers' 34-3 win over the Falcons. He also caught both of his targets for 11 yards and a touchdown.

Fantasy Impact: Hubbard has out-touched the younger Jonathon Brooks, who missed some time in this game due to a groin injury, by a solid margin yet again. He appears to be the back to own in Carolina moving forward. He'll get to play Cleveland next time out.

Bryce Young completed 23-of-36 passes for 287 yards and three touchdowns while running once for six yards in the Panthers' 34-3 win over the Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: Young was impressive yet again in Week 2, taking out a Falcons defense that couldn't stop the Panthers for the majority of the day. Young now has six touchdowns to one interception to start the season and is looking like a legitimate fantasy starter.

Fantasy Impact: Dodson will add depth in the linebacker room for Carolina.

AJ Dillon rushed five times for 28 yards in the Panthers' 59-37 Week 1 loss to the Chicago Bears.

Fantasy Impact: Dillon made the most of his touches in a crowded backfield in the season opener, averaging a team-high 5.6 yards per carry in the loss. The running back will be difficult to trust with Chuba Hubbard and Jonathan Brooks the primary options in the backfield, with a Week 2 contest against the Atlanta Falcons up next.

Tommy Tremble caught three of his five targets for 25 yards in the Panthers' 59-37 loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 1.

Fantasy Impact: Tremble made the most of his modest target share, finishing third on the team as part of an offense that saw quarterback Bryce Young spread the ball around to seven different receivers. The tight end remains a risky option in all formats ahead of a Week 2 contest against the Atlanta Falcons.

Mitchell Evans caught one of his two targets for nine yards in the Panthers' 59-37 loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 1.

Fantasy Impact: Evans saw minimal involvement in the Carolina passing attack, with quarterback Bryce Young spreading the ball around to seven different pass-catchers. The tight end can be left off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 2 contest against the Atlanta Falcons.

Jimmy Horn Jr. failed to catch his only target in the Panthers' 59-37 loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 1.

Fantasy Impact: Horn Jr. was more of an afterthought in the Carolina passing attack in the season opener, finishing last on the team in targets. The wideout remains best left off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 2 contest against the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: Moon will add depth in the linebacker room for Carolina heading into the season.
