Horn logged six total tackles (all solo) and defended one pass in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Bears. Horn has now recorded six or more stops in three of the Panthers' last four games, bringing his season total up to 23 tackles. He's on pace to easily break his previous best of 53 total tackles in one season and remains one of the few bright spots on a Carolina defense that ranks last in the NFL in points allowed per game (33). Expect Horn to continue producing as the Panthers host the Falcons in Week 6.

Horn recorded eight total tackles (seven solo), including one tackle for loss, while also defending one pass during Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Bengals. Horn allowed just four receptions for 33 yards while also finishing second on the Panthers in total tackles during Sunday's loss. The 2021 first-round pick is tied for first on Carolina in interceptions (one) and ranks second in passes defended (three) through four games. He's expected to remain the team's top cornerback in Week 5 as the Panthers travel to Chicago.

Horn finished the regular season with 27 tackles (20 solo) and five passes defended in six games. Horn has played only 22 games since being drafted eighth overall in 2021. With a hamstring injury sidelining him for a long stretch this season, Horn's overall impact was limited. Despite flashing promise when healthy, Horn approaches the final year of his rookie contract with significant questions over his durability.

Horn (toe) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. Horn began Carolina's week of practice with back-to-back DNPs, but after a limited session Friday, it seems as if he'll be able to play through his toe issue Sunday. The third-year cornerback and the Panthers defense will look to rebound against a Jaguars squad that's led by backup quarterback C.J. Beathard in Week 17.

Horn (toe) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports. Horn played a season-high 61 defensive snaps during Sunday's loss versus the Packers, and it's not clear when he picked up the toe issue. In any case, if he can't get back to practice Thursday or Friday, he'll probably end up sitting out in Week 17.
