Two Key Carolina Panthers Questionable For Week 18

The Carolina Panthers have turned heads in the second half of the 2022/23 season since the return of Sam Darnold at Quarterback, and while he's played well, it's the defence and the running game that has given this franchise hope for the future.  

Unfortunately, ahead of their Week 18 clash with the New Orleans Saints, the Panthers have classified D'Onta Foreman and Brian Burns, two of their most important players for the future, as questionable, with the chance that they are rested to preserve their health for 2023 and beyond.

With plenty of talented young players and some assets in the off-season, this is now a Panthers team that could contend for the NFC South title next season, and if Foreman and Burns can improve upon impressive 2022 seasons, this is a team to watch going forward.
