Sanders (neck) was a limited practice participant Wednesday while wearing a red non-contact jersey, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Head coach Dave Canales said Monday that he's hopeful Sanders -- who hasn't played since injuring his neck Week 12 -- will be able to return Sunday versus the Eagles. The rookie fourth-round pick didn't practice last week, so it's encouraging to see him back on the field Wednesday, but he'll need to resume handling full-contact reps in short order for a chance at returning to the field Week 14. Tommy Tremble served as Carolina's top tight end and racked up a season-high 77 yards on five catches (eight targets) in the Week 13 overtime loss to the Buccaneers while Sanders was sidelined.
