The Carolina Panthers are dealing with significant injury issues as two of their starting wide receivers, Diontae Johnson and Adam Thielen, have been ruled out for the upcoming game against the Denver Broncos. Johnson, who has been struggling with rib, hamstring, and ankle injuries, missed multiple practices leading up to the game, and Thielen continues to recover and is not yet ready to return. This absence leaves the Panthers, including quarterback Bryce Young, without two key offensive playmakers as they look to bounce back in a tough matchup.
