  "account": "The Carolina Panthers are set to have their top pass receiver on the field for their Week 3 matchup against the Cleveland Browns, according to head coach Dave Canales. Coker, a third-year wideout, was initially listed as questionable with an ankle injury heading into the weekend. However, Coker's status improved on Friday when he participated in practice and showcased good form during a session.\n\nCoker suffered a rolled ankle during the season-opener against the Chicago Bears, where he had a career-high 138 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Despite wearing a walking boot on his left foot the following day, Coker ultimately suited up for the Week 2 game against the Atlanta Falcons. In that contest, Coker made an impact with eight catches for 66 yards and returned two punts for a combined 49 yards, contributing to a 34-3 victory.",
