Jonathon Brooks

ESPN’s David Newton reports Jonathon Brooks (knee) is expected to play in Week 10 against the Giants.

Brooks has been practicing for a few weeks and even got in three full practices before being ruled out for Week 9. Brooks suffered a torn ACL in his final season at Texas and began his rookie season on the PUP list. The Panthers have been taking his return to action extremely slowly and he will likely see just a few touches in his 2024 debut. Chuba Hubbard will remain the starter for Week 10, though his bell-cow status will be gone once Brooks is officially activated from PUP.
