The Panthers started the clock on the return of three players from injured reserve on Wednesday.
Wide receiver Xavier Legette, cornerback Mike Jackson, and running back Jonathon Brooks have all returned to practice for the 3-5 team. The three players will be able to practice for the next 21 days and they can be activated at any point in that window.
Legette hurt his knee in Week 2 and had two catches for 64 yards before landing on injured reserve. Jackson and Brooks both had core muscle surgery. Jackson was hurt after starting the first three games of the season and Brooks played in the first two contests.
The Panthers also designated offensive lineman Brady Christensen for return recently and they’ve brought two players back from injured reserve already this season, which leaves them with two more opportunities to do so during the regular season.
