Taylor Moton - Will play Sunday Moton (knee) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Moton was deemed questionable for the contest after failing to log a full practice during Week 8 prep, but his partial participation was presumably just precautionary. He'll handle his usual duties at right tackle versus Houston.

Xavier Woods - Good to go Woods (hamstring) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Woods missed three straight games before Carolina's Week 7 bye, but he'll return to action versus Houston. Given his lengthy absence, Woods may be limited, but the Panthers' secondary is already shorthanded, so they'll presumably take as many snaps from Woods as possible.

OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Frankie Luvu - Cleared for Week 8 Luvu (hip) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact As expected, Luvu will suit up despite being listed as questionable. He's yet to miss a game this season, recording 39 tackles and 2.5 sacks across six appearances.

OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Burns - Good to go Burns (elbow) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Darin Gantt of the Panthers official site reports.

Impact As expected, Burns will suit up despite suffering an elbow injury during Thursday's practice. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Burns is not 100 percent, but his presence should still be a major boost for Carolina's defense. Across six games, the 2019 first-round pick has recorded 13 tackles, four sacks and a forced fumble.

OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sam Franklin Jr. - Set to start Week 8 Franklin is set to start at strong safety for Sunday's game against the Texans, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact The move comes with safeties Vonn Bell (quadriceps) and Alex Cook (coach's decision) both inactive for Sunday's contest. Franklin has 22 tackles in six games this season -- already surpassing his 20 tackles from last year -- and an interception returned for a touchdown. He'll start at strong safety next to Xavier Woods.

OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Burns - Will likely play Sunday Burns, who's listed as questionable with an elbow injury, is likely to play Sunday versus Houston, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Burns suffered the injury during Thursday's practice and isn't 100 percent, but it looks like he's going to be active. Across six games this season, the 2019 first-round pick has 13 tackles, four sacks and a forced fumble.

2023 NFL Week 8 odds: Best bets, including Falcons, Packers to cover

Austin Corbett - Will suit up vs. Texans Corbett (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus Houston, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Corbett is slated to make his 2023 debut in Week 8, finally coming back from the ruptured ACL he sustained last season. He figures to start at right guard Sunday.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Xavier Woods - Officially questionable for Sunday Woods (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus Houston, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Despite the official questionable tag, Woods said Friday that things were "pointing up" for him playing in Week 8. If he can go, he figures to step back into a starting role at safety Sunday.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Vonn Bell - Not ready to return Week 8 Bell (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bell's last appearance came in Week 5 against the Lions. His next chance to play will come in Week 9 against the Colts, with Alex Cook and Sam Franklin likely to see more playing time against the Texans in Bell's absence.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Frankie Luvu - Questionable but says he'll play Luvu (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Per Person, Luvu said earlier in the week that he'll definitely play, so he's more likely than not to suit up. Still, the linebackers' status will need to be confirmed prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. EDT kickoff. Luvu exited Carolina's Week 6 loss to Miami due to the hip injury but had additional recovery time with the Panthers on bye in Week 7.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Burns - Officially questionable for Week 8 Burns (elbow) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Burns appears to have suffered the elbow injury during practice this week, as he initially emerged from Carolina's Week 7 bye without limitations. If the linebacker is unable to suit up Sunday, Carolina's pass rush would be significantly weakened, as Burns leads the team with four sacks through six games after notching 12.5 sacks last season.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Laviska Shenault Jr. - Won't play against Houston Shenault (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Shenault suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 6 against the Dolphins, and Carolina's Week 7 bye didn't afford him enough recovery time. Without Shenault available to handle a change-of-pace role out of the backfield, a few extra touches could go to Miles Sanders and Chuba Hubbard, who are expected to split carries. Shenault's next chance to suit up will come Week 9 against the Colts on Nov. 5.
