The Panthers are still banged-up by any reasonable measure, but it appears they’ll have one defensive starter back on the field.
Cornerback Donte Jackson is listed as questionable with a groin injury, but was back on the practice field Friday.
The second-round pick quickly earned a starting job this year, but struggled a bit against the Falcons a week ago.
The Panthers have already listed four players as out for Sunday’s game against the Bengals: Tight end Greg Olsen, right guard Trai Turner, safety Da’Norris Searcy and wide receiver Curtis Samuel.
