The Panthers face Atlanta with two starters out, forcing a reshuffle—Corbett and Hunt land on IR with a grade-3 MCL sprain and a torn biceps. Cade Mays takes over center, Chandler Zavala steps in at guard, and Carolina tries to protect Bryce Young while keeping the run game functional. The early line change could shape fantasy outputs for WRs and RBs.

Expect a battering of quick throws and screens as the unit settles; if the replacements gel quickly, Carolina can maintain balance; otherwise, fantasy managers should re-evaluate protection-based targets and potential streaming options as the line develops chemistry.
