LAS VEGAS — The Panthers are operating with reduced depth on defense following the foot injury that has sidelined veteran nose tackle Shy Tuttle this week. Tuttle leads the list of six inactive players for the Panthers today.
The other inactive players include cornerbacks Shemar Bartholomew and Tariq Castro-Fields, offensive linemen Andrew Raym and Jarrett Kingston, and tight end Messiah Swinson.
To address the shortage, the Panthers activated practice squad defensive end DeShawn Williams on Saturday as a standard elevation for Week 3. This move aims to bolster their defensive line in Tuttle's absence.
Following the season-ending knee injury to Derrick Brown in the opener, the Panthers are relying on veteran A'Shawn Robinson along with Nick Thurman, LaBryan Ray, Jayden Peevy, and Williams for their defensive front.
