CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Browns are set to take on the Carolina Panthers, led by Cleveland's former quarterback Baker Mayfield, but they'll do so with a few players on the sidelines.
Among the inactive players is right tackle Jack Conklin, who is rehabbing a knee injury that took him out for the season last year and required surgery to repair. Conklin was listed as questionable for Sunday's season opener after looking good through practice but is not quite ready to return yet.
Here are all of the Browns' inactive players for the game against the Panthers:
- QB Kellen Mond
- WR Michael Woods II
- RB D'Ernest Johnson
- S Richard LeCounte III
- DE Isaiah Thomas
- T Chris Hubbard
- T Jack Conklin
With Conklin out, the Browns are expected to start James Hudson III at right tackle in his place.
Johnson being on the inactive list is the one surprise, as he didn't appear on the injury reports leading into the game. Woods and Hubbard, however, were both listed as questionable for the game before eventually being ruled out pre-kickoff.
The Panthers also have a few players sidelined for the game, including their new wide receiver. Here are all of the Panthers' inactives:
WR Laviska Shenault Jr.
DE Amaré Barno
OL Cade Mays
DT Marquan McCall
TE Stephen Sullivan
LB Arron Mosby
The Browns and Panthers kick things off Sunday at Bank of America Stadium at 1 p.m.
