The Carolina Panthers had a few key big men take a day off.
Wednesday’s practice, the team’s second ahead of their Week 12 matchup against the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs, did not feature left guard Damien Lewis (illness), defensive lineman A’Shawn Robinson (rest) and outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (knee). Head coach Dave Canales did, however, tell reporters that all three are expected to practice on Thursday.
Running back Miles Sanders was also a non-participant for this afternoon’s session. He exited the Week 10 win over the New York Giants with an ankle injury.
