After missing Week 8 against the Bills with an ankle injury, Panthers quarterback Bryce Young<\/a>\u00a0practiced fully every day this week, so he will return to the starting lineup as he enters Week 9 without a game status. It’s a huge deal he’s making his return to action with veteran backup Andy Dalton<\/a> being listed as questionable with a right thumb injury. Young’s offensive line is a different story: center Cade Mays (knee, ankle) is out while right tackle Taylor Moton (knee) is questionable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Linebacker Quay Walker (calf) is questionable after being limited in practice on Thursday and Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
