Hartsfield (ankle) will not play Sunday against the Ravens, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. The return of Jeremy Chinn (hamstring) off injured reserve mitigates the loss of Hartsfield. The 25-year-old has started every game since Week 3 accumulating 40 tackles over that stretch.

Hartsfield (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Falcons. Hartsfield practiced fully Friday after a pair of limited sessions to begin the week. After playing every single defensive snap for the Panthers over the past three weeks, Hartsfield can be expected to see heavy usage once again in Atlanta.

Hartsfield was limited in practice Thursday with a hamstring injury, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. Hartsfield was a limited participant for the second day in a row due to a hamstring issue, though it's unclear when this injury first arose. The starting free safety has played 100 percent of Carolina's defensive snaps over the past three weeks, and he's recorded 32 tackles, two passes defended and a forced fumble over seven contests this season. Hartsfield will have just one more practice to increase his activity before Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Hartsfield will require surgery after injuring his wrist during Sunday's win over the Jets, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. The surgery is not expected to knock Hartsfield out for the season, and he is considered week-to-week. The 24-year-old recorded two tackles and one pass defensed during the season opener. He appeared in all 16 games for the Panthers as a rookie and started to see more defensive snaps towards the end of the season.

Head coach Matt Rhule has been using Hartsfield at running back during training camp, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports. The undrafted free agent out of Mississippi is proving his versatility as he looks to snag a roster spot for the 2020 season. Hartsfield isn't entirely new to the position, as he played there in high school, and he could potentially be emergency depth for the Panthers. With Christian McCaffrey set for another season with 300-plus touches, there won't be much to go around for his backups.
