Mike Kaye

Panthers coach Dave Canales is “hopeful” OLB Jaelan Phillips (hamstring) and OT Monroe Freeling (knee) will be ready for Week 6 vs. the Eagles. He said RB Trevor Etienne (ankle) will “for sure” return from IR after the bye. OT Taylor Moton (blood clot) and DE Turk Wharton (neck) need medical clearance before being taken off their respective injury lists. OT Ickey Ekwonu (patellar tendon) is a ways away, per Canales.
