The Panthers ruled four players out for Sunday’s game against the Broncos.
The team will be without outside linebacker Jaelan Phillips (hamstring), left guard Damien Lewis (knee), linebacker Bobby Okereke (foot), and rookie cornerback Will Lee III (hamstring). None of those four starters practiced this week.

Complicating matters in the offensive line, offensive tackle Corey Bullock (quadriceps) and offensive guard Torricelli Simpkins III (ankle) are questionable, though both were full participants on Friday.
Otherwise, the only other player on the roster with an injury designation is offensive lineman Brady Christensen (hamstring).
Christensen’s 21-day return-to-practice window opened this week, but he has to be activated to the roster first.
