  • Panthers' Damien Lewis: Returns to practice

    Lewis (calf) was an active participant at the Panthers' training camp practice Wednesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Lewis was able to return to practice for the first time in a couple weeks as he appears to have fully recovered from the calf injury he suffered in late July. The 29-year-old is expected to operate as Carolina's starting left guard this season, and he will now be good to go for the team's preseason opener Saturday in Buffalo.

  • Panthers' Damien Lewis: Set to miss a few days

    Lewis (calf) suffered an issue Tuesday and is questionable to practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Lewis should be able to return relatively quickly, and the left guard's ability to start the regular season should not be impacted. The 29-year-old has a history of quick turnarounds, missing only one week after suffering a shoulder injury during the 2025 season.

    Lewis (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jets, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Lewis suffered a shoulder injury during Thursday's practice.

Gantt relays that Austin Corbett -- who was activated from injured reserve Saturday -- is expected to start at left guard in Lewis' absence.

  • Panthers' Damien Lewis: Expecting to play Week 1

    Head coach Dave Canales said Thursday that Lewis (shoulder) is on track to play in Week 1 against the Jaguars on Sunday, Sept. 7, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Lewis missed most of training camp due to a shoulder injury that he suffered in the Panthers' preseason opener against the Browns. His practice participation next week will provide a sense of his availability for Carolina's regular-season opener. Chandler Zavala would be the top candidate to start at left guard if Lewis is not cleared to play.
