Week 4 Final Injury Report: Kawann Short expected to play The defensive tackle was a full practice participant on Thursday and Friday.

OCTOBER 2, 2020 • PANTHERS.COM

Full practice participant Short (foot) practiced without limitations Thursday, Myles Simmons of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Short's status for Week 4 looks promising now that he's progressed from limited to full practice participation over the past two days. Injury issues have so far lingered in 2020, however, as Short has missed two games already this season after sitting out all but two contests last year because of a partially torn rotator cuff. The two-time Pro Bowler now has a full practice session in-hand as he readies himself for an upcoming matchup against Arizona's seventh-ranked rush offense (149.7 yards per game).

Sitting out Week 3 Short (foot) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.

Impact The two-time Pro Bowler was doubtful coming into the weekend, but now he's officially been ruled out. This development is discouraging news for a Panthers defense that has so far permitted an NFL-worst six rushing touchdowns to opposing running backs. That weakness may become especially glaring Week 3, as Carolina takes on a Chargers team that leads the NFL with 41.5 rush attempts per game. As Short sits, Zach Kerr will pick up his fifth start since the start of 2019.

Doubtful for Week 3 Short (foot) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Short is set to miss a second straight game due to a foot injury he appears to have sustained during Carolina's season opener. As one of the league's most reliable defensive tackles, Short's absence will once again be a significant blow to the Panthers' run defense.

Won't play in Tampa Short (foot) is out for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Short returned from last year's season-ending shoulder injury to record four tackles on 63 percent snap share in a Week 1 loss to the Raiders. He apparently picked up a foot injury along the way, and he'll now be out for at least one game. Short has been one of the better defensive tackles in the NFL since the Panthers picked him in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft, so his upcoming absence could help Tampa Bay's Tom Brady and Ronald Jones. The Panthers are left with 30-year-old journeyman Zach Kerr and rookie sixth-round pick Bravvion Roy as their main options for DT snaps alongside first-round rookie Derrick Brown.

Upgrades to limited practice Short (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Myles Simmons of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Short was held out of practice entirely to begin the week, so it's encouraging to now see him handling reps on at least a limited basis. He'll have one more chance to participate without restrictions and shed his injury tag before Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Impact Short racked up four tackles in his team's opener but evidently picked up a foot injury somewhere along the way. The defensive tackle will likely need to up his practice participation throughout the week if he wants to suit up against the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Nearing full range of motion Short said Sunday that he's nearly regained full range of motion with his shoulder, Myles Simmons of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Short underwent shoulder surgery back in October and spent the rest of the 2019 campaign on injured reserve. He managed to avoid the PUP list to kick off training camp, so Short still looks on track to make a full recovery in time to kick off Week 1. The starting defensive tackle is entering the fourth season of a five-year, $80.5 million deal.
