Jewell recorded 10 tackles (five solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 30-14 loss versus the Cowboys. Jewell racked up 10 tackles for his third straight game in a contest where Dallas ran the football 40 times. He's nine tackles away from his third consecutive 100-tackle season going into Week 16 versus the Cardinals.

Jewell (hamstring) is available for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, David Newton of ESPN.com reports. Jewell will once again play through a hamstring injury despite being listed as questionable. Since Carolina's Week 11 bye, Jewell has recorded 29 tackles (17 solo) and 3.5 sacks in three games.

Jewell (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Newton of ESPN.com reports. Jewell was able to play through his hamstring injury in the Panthers' Week 14 loss to the Eagles, tallying a team-leading 10 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, across 56 defensive snaps. Wednesday's limited session is likely precautionary, however, the 29-year-old linebacker could be in jeopardy of missing a Week 15 contest against the Cowboys if he aggravated the injury in Sunday's loss.

Jewell (hamstring) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Philadelphia, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports. Jewell had his DNP on Thursday sandwiched between limited practices as he works through a hamstring injury he likely picked up in Carolina's Week 13 loss to Tampa Bay. His return to practice Friday is a step in the right direction, but his official status for Sunday's game might not be known until the Panthers announce their inactives list approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Jewell is unable to play Sunday, Claudin Cherelus would be the top candidate to start at inside linebacker alongside Trevin Wallace.

Jewell (hamstring) did not participate in Thursday's practice. Jewell practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, so his lack of participation Thursday represents a clear step in the wrong direction. The veteran linebacker was Carolina's leading tackler Week 13 against the Buccaneers and is an integral every-down player for a defensive front that can't spare any more attrition to injury. He'll likely need to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday to have any chance of being available for Sunday's road matchup against the Eagles.
