Two starting pitchers participated in this game. Outside linebacker Joe Tryon-Soyinka and defensive back Tykee Smith are both sidelined, with both on the defensive end. Reserves Tyreke Funderburk, Devin Culp and Ernest Brown IV are also inactive today.
Smith will be the biggest hit, but he’s relatively deep for the Bucks. Substitute Christian Isien is likely to start in his place, as he did last week. This means Mike Edwards will start at safety in place of Jordan Whitehead, who the team placed on injured reserve earlier this week.
Tryon Soyinka has been an iron man, so he will miss the first fight of his career. Anthony Nelson and Chris Braswell will share the majority of his missed snaps, and Jose Ramirez could also get some snaps in a rotation role. Tryon Soyinka had been playing better in recent weeks, recording seven pressures and one sack in three weeks before suffering an early injury against the Giants in Week 12.
Panthers inactive players
The Panthers will be without two young contributors to the offense, as rookie tight end Ja’Tavion Sanders and receiver Jalen Coker are both inactive.
