Is Jalen Coker Playing Today? Latest on the Panthers Star’s Injury Status for Week 4 vs. Lions
After a hot start to the season, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker suffered a quadriceps injury early in the third quarter of the Week 3 loss to the Cleveland Browns and did not return. He now appears to be on his way to missing the Panthers’ Week 4 Sunday Night Football matchup against the Detroit Lions.
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker is uncertain to participate in the team's Week 4 game against the Detroit Lions due to a quadriceps injury sustained in Week 3. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported early Sunday that Coker is "unlikely to play" in Sunday night's matchup. Coker has had a solid season thus far, catching 18 of 22 targets for 222 yards and two touchdowns, ranking second in targets and second in receptions and receiving yards among Panthers receivers.
With Coker likely out, head coach Dave Canales announced that they would elevate WR Ja'seem Reed and CB Robert Rochell from the practice squad, bringing them up only if Coker could not play against the Lions.
