Analysis: Team meeting helped Panthers bond, record 1st win
After an 0-2 start, quarterback Teddy Bridgewater began to wonder of his Carolina Panthers teammates “Do we really know each other?”

Not playing against former team
Okung (groin) is listed as inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
Impact
The two-time Pro Bowl tackle certainly had this one circled on his calendar, as Carolina was set to face his former team of four years. Melvin Ingram (knee) will not suit up against the Panthers this week after landing on injured reserve Saturday, but Carolina's offensive line still has to contend with game-wrecker Joey Bosa, who has five QB hits and two sacks thus far in 2020. Second-round draft choice from 2019, Greg Little, will start in Okung's place.

Practices in full
Okung (ankle/back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Myles Simmons of the Panthers' official site reports.
Impact
Okung is now back at full health after having dealt with ankle and back injuries during training camp. The veteran left tackle only managed to suit up for six games with the Chargers last season, so avoiding the injury bug will be a focal point of his inaugural season in Carolina.

Dealing with back issues
Okung (back) left practice early Sunday to work in the pool, Jonathan M. Alexander of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Impact
The positive news for Okung was that his exit from practice was planned, as he seems to be dealing with a tight back. It was reported last week that the veteran was contemplating retirement, so injury issues would certainly push him in that direction. Coach Matt Rhule went on to add that Okung will likely be doing the same protocol for the next week or so.

Contemplating retirement
Okung is considering retirement, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Impact
The left tackle missed 10 games last season with a pulmonary embolism caused by blood clots. He was then traded from the Chargers to the Panthers in March, and while he declined to opt out of the 2020 season, Okung may just retire from football instead. The 31-year-old is projected as Carolina's blindside starter.
