  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Missing more time

    Wharton (toe) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys.

    The first-year Panther didn't practice all week and is now in line to miss his fourth game of the season due to hamstring and toe injuries. Wharton has found success when on the field, recording nine total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, across just 51 defensive snaps this year. LaBryan Ray is expected to continue serving as Carolina's top reserve defensive end until Wharton returns to full health.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Opens week with DNP

    Wharton (toe) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Wharton was unable to play in the Panthers' Week 5 win over the Dolphins due to a toe injury. He's opened the week with another DNP, so he'll have two more opportunities to return to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Sunday's road game against the Cowboys.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Ruled out for Week 5

    Wharton (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Now idle with toe injury

    Wharton (toe) was estimated to be a DNP in Wednesday's walkthrough practice.

    Wharton previously dealt with a hamstring issue that caused him to miss Weeks 2 and 3 before he returned last Sunday against the Patriots. Wharton played 63 percent of the defensive snaps against New England and recorded five tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the 42-13 loss.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Good to go for Week 4

    Wharton (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Wharton wasn't able to practice fully at any point this week, but his hamstring issue wasn't deemed serious enough to keep him from suiting up Sunday. The defensive lineman -- who posted a career-high 6.5 sacks with the Chiefs in 2024 over 17 regular-season games -- had missed the Panthers' previous two games with the injury.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Questionable for Sunday

    Wharton (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots.

    Wharton upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to limited sessions Thursday and Friday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's contest. Prior to sustaining a hamstring injury, the first-year Panther tallied four total tackles across 20 defensive snaps in the team's regular-season opener. If Wharton is unable to return in Week 4, Jaden Crumedy will likely serve as Carolina's top reserve defensive end.

  • Panthers' Tershawn Wharton: Logs limited session Thursday

    Wharton (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    The 27-year-old hadn't practiced since sustaining a hamstring injury in Carolina's Week 1 loss to the Jaguars, but his limited participation Thursday suggests a return may be imminent. Head coach Dave Canales told reporters Wharton was expected to miss 2-4 weeks following his injury, making the Week 4 matchup against the Patriots a potential target return date. His participation in Friday's practice will likely provide the best indication of whether he'll be available Sunday.
