Panthers | Rico Dowdle misses practice Tue Dec 30, 03:28 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Rico Dowdle (toe) did not practice on Tuesday, Dec. 30. Head coach Dave Canales said the move was not expected to hurt his availability for Week 18.
| Footballguys view: Even though Dowdle sat out, head coach Dave Canales believes it won't be much of a problem ahead of Saturday's matchup against the Buccaneers. "He's got a sore toe," Canales told reporters. "A little bit more sore than normal, and so we just decided to give him a rest day. I'm pretty confident that he'll be able to go." Dowdle, who has 229 carries for 1,066 yards and a career-high six touchdowns on the season, ran for 59 yards, his most since Week 9, in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Seahawks, working in his usual timeshare with Chuba Hubbard. |

Link to storyCarolina Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan caught one pass for five yards against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. He was targeted four times during the game.
| Footballguys view: It's not clear if the illness that made McMillan a late add to the questionable list affected his play because the Seahawks rarely allowed Bryce Young to have clean looks in the passing game. The rookie #8 overall pick lived up to the hype, but it's not clear if he has the quarterback to unlock his fantasy value long term. |

Carolina Panthers QB Bryce Young went 14-for-24 for 54 yards, zero touchdowns and one interception against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. He also rushed for 27 yards and one touchdown on nine carries during the game.
| Footballguys view: For once, it was as bad as the stats looked. Young was overwhelmed by the Seahawks defense at every turn and looked powerless to move the ball through the air for most of the afternoon. He'll still get a chance to host a playoff game if he and the Panthers win at Tampa next week. |

Link to storyCarolina Panthers QB Bryce Young (ankle) should be a full participant during practice this upcoming week despite injuring his ankle during the Week 16 game, according to head coach Dave Canales.
| Footballguys view: While his stats on Sunday don't leap off the page, Young generated 191 yards on 21-of-32 passing with two touchdowns, the QB made clutch plays late. He now has 12 career game-winning drives. Only Justin Herbert (13) has more before turning 25 (since 1950). Only Dak Prescott (14), Matt Ryan (13), and Herbert had more in their first three seasons. Carolina plays Seattle in Week 17. The Seahawks will be a much greater challenge than the Buccaneers. We'll monitor Young's health in coming days. |

| Footballguys view: McMillan missed practice on Wednesday, but he's back to full on Thursday. That means he's good to go for the Week 16 matchup against the Buccaneers. In a game to control the NFC South, we like McMillan as a WR2/flex option. |
