The Carolina Panthers will be without at least two key members of their secondary for an extended period of time. Starting safety Xavier Woods is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a hamstring injury, while starting cornerback Jaycee Horn is already on injured reserve with a hamstring injury. The Panthers could also be without cornerback CJ Henderson, who is filling in for Horn, due to an ankle injury. Additionally, starting inside linebacker Frankie Luvu's status is in question after leaving Sunday's game with a hip injury. The Panthers are potentially without four defensive starters as they prepare to face the Minnesota Vikings and their high-powered passing attack. The status of starting quarterback Bryce Young, who is dealing with an ankle sprain, is also uncertain.
