The Carolina Panthers will face the Atlanta Falcons without several key players in their regular-season finale. Right guard Robert Hunt, who was questionable due to a knee issue, leads the list of inactives. Hunt did not practice on Wednesday or Friday and will be replaced by Chandler Zavala.

The Panthers' inactive list also includes cornerback Jaycee Horn, linebacker Josey Jewell, safety Lonnie Johnson, wide receivers Velus Jones Jr. and Deven Thompkins, and third quarterback Jack Plummer. In Jewell's absence, Chandler Wooten is set to start at linebacker while Akayleb Evans is expected to replace Horn at cornerback. Additionally, Jordan Fuller will take over from rookie Demani Richardson in the safety position.

Miles Sanders remains the starting running back for the Panthers.

For the Falcons, the inactive players are cornerback Kevin King, inside linebacker JD Bertrand, defensive lineman Brandon Dorlus, offensive lineman Elijah Wilkinson, tackle Brandon Parker, and wide receiver Darnell Mooney.
