  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: No stats in win

    Brown did not record a stat in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Falcons.

    Brown was on the injury report with a knee injury leading up to the NFC South matchup, and he went on to log a season-low 67 percent defensive snap rate. He also failed to record a tackle in a game for the first time since Week 11 of the 2020 campaign.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Practices fully Thursday

    Brown (knee) was a full participant at practice Thursday.

    Brown's participation was limited Wednesday, but that seems to have been for maintenance purposes. Barring a setback, Brown should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Falcons. He has 3.0 sacks among his 40 tackles (20 solo) this season.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Battling knee injury

    Brown was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Brown played his typical role in Sunday's loss to the Saints and logged a season-high nine tackles, so it's unclear when he suffered the injury. It could be a move to limit his workload, so his practice status for the rest of the week is worth monitoring.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Game-high nine stops in Week 10

    Brown logged nine tackles (six solo) during the Panthers' 17-7 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

    Brown led both teams with a season-high nine tackles Sunday, his most in a game since Week 10 of the 2023 regular season against the Bears (10 tackles). The sixth-year pro is up to 40 tackles (20 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and five pass defenses through 10 regular-season games.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Ready for Sunday

    Brown (elbow) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

    The 27-year-old popped up on the Panthers' injury report Thursday as a limited practice participant due to an elbow issue. However, he upgraded to full participation Friday, suggesting he's moved past the issue in time to face New Orleans in Week 10. With Brown back at full health, he's expected to operate as the Panthers' top interior defensive lineman Sunday.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Logs limited session Thursday

    Brown (elbow) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.

    Brown was a new addition to the injury report Thursday. However, the 27-year-old does not appear to be too concerned with the injury designation, saying his elbow is "good", per Joe Person of The Athletic. The sixth-year pro plays a crucial role on Carolina's defensive line, and he's recorded 31 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and five passes defensed in the team's first nine games of the season.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Practices in full

    Brown (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    The veteran defensive lineman sustained a knee injury in the Panthers' Week 8 loss to the Bills, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. Brown is an integral part of Carolina's defense, recording 27 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and five passes defended over the team's first eight games. Now back at full health, he's expected to operate as one of the Panthers' top defensive linemen in the Week 9 matchup against the Packers.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Not dealing with major injury

    Brown (knee) doesn't believe that he is dealing with a significant injury, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Brown exited in the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 8 matchup against Buffalo and didn't return. The veteran defensive end said after the loss that he is fine and that his knee "just locked up" on the artificial turf. Panthers coach Dave Canales also said that Brown should be fine, per Newton, but Brown's participation level during Week 9 practices should provide further clarity about his status moving forward.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Exits with knee injury

    Brown (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.

    Brown went to the blue medical tent to be evaluated for a knee injury, but he may be held out the rest of the way given that the Bills hold a commanding lead in the fourth quarter. If he's unable to return, then LaBryan Ray and Bobby Brown would be in line for more snaps at defensive end.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Does it all in Week 7

    Brown recorded seven total tackles (four solo), including 2.0 sacks, and three passes defended in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.

    The 2020 first-round pick from Auburn was one of five Panthers to sack a Jets quarterback, taking down both Tyrod Taylor and Justin Fields during Sunday's win. After playing just one game in 2024 due to a knee injury, Brown has returned to his usual form to begin Carolina's 2025 campaign. He's been a large part of the team's defensive success, recording 26 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and five passes defended over the first seven games. Expect Brown to remain an integral part of the Panthers' defensive game plan in Week 8, when the Bills travel to Carolina.

  • Panthers' Derrick Brown: Past oblique injury

    Brown (oblique) played in Saturday's preseason game against the Texans.

    Brown was nursing a sore oblique last month but he saw his first action of the preseason versus Houston, playing one defensive series. Brown played in just one regular-season game last season due to a knee injury that required meniscus surgery.
