The Panthers were back on the practice field again today as they prepare for a key NFC South matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday.The good news is that everyone practiced in some capacity today. Colin Jones Brian Burns Jersey , who missed yesterday’s session, was back in action today.Curtis Samuel, Donte Jackson and Devin Funchess were also at practice, which is a good indicator that they will be ready to go on Sunday against the Bucs.Devin Funchess is the only Panther listed on the injury report as questionable for Sunday’s game, but it’s likely that he will suit up against the Bucs.Here’s today’s full injury report:Panthers injury reportOutN/ADoubtfulN/AQuestionableWR Devin Funchess (non-injury/back) * * *Did not participate in practiceN/ALimited participation in practiceDE Julius Peppers (rest)Full participation in practiceS Mike Adams (rest)WR Devin Funchess (non-injury/back)K Graham Gano (knee)CB Donte Jackson (quad)S Colin Jones (non-injury)C Ryan Kalil (rest)TE Chris Manhertz (ankle)QB Cam Newton (shoulder)TE Greg Olsen (foot)S Eric Reid (shoulder)WR Curtis Samuel (hamstring)DT Kawann Short (calf)WR Torrey Smith (knee)Practice StatusDid not participate in practice = 0% of a player’s normal repetitionsLimited participation in practice = Less than 100% of a player’s normal repetitionsFull participation in practice = 100% of a player’s normal repetitionsGame StatusOut = Player will not playDoubtful = Player unlikely to playQuestionable = Uncertain if player will play Within the next nine days Ryan Kalil Color Rush Jersey , Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell either will show up, or he won’t. If he does, the Steelers will have Bell to pair with AFC offensive player of the month James Conner. If he doesn’t, the Steelers will have a big decision to make in the offseason.Although it would make sense for the Steelers to strike a wink-nod deal with Bell’s agent, Adisa Bakari Luke Kuechly Color Rush Jersey , that would entail Bell not showing up and the Steelers not re-tagging him in 2019, the current thinking is that the two sides won’t be taking this path.So either Bell will show up, get credit for the contract year, and most likely hit the open market in 2019 or he won’t, allowing the Steelers (as one league source has predicted) to tag Bell again (at the same $14.54 million franchise tender as in 2018) and trade him.Of course Graham Gano Jersey , Bell would still have to agree to a trade, because he can’t be traded until he signs a tender. This means that the Steelers, after tagging Bell, would simply say, “Go find a trade partner.”The Steelers also could choose to avoid any further headaches and not tag Bell in 2019 Julius Peppers Jersey , allowing him to leave and getting credit for the departure when calculating compensatory draft picks for 2020.There’s still a slim possibility that the Steelers would rescind the tender before Bell can sign it. That’s highly unlikely, since the Steelers then would get nothing in return for Bell, who potentially would make a beeline for Baltimore.Finally, it’s important to remember that the Steelers have two games in the next five days, at Baltimore on Sunday and at home against the Panthers on Thursday night. If Conner suffers a potentially season-ending injury in either of those two games DJ Moore Color Rush Jersey , Bell would acquire plenty of leverage over the Steelers, which could suddenly be interested in offering him more than $855,000 per week to return to the roster — and to his role as the team’s workhorse tailback for the stretch run.By Friday, it will be known whether Conner is, or isn’t James Color Rush Bradberry Jersey , good to go for Week 11. That will frame up the final analysis that will lead to Bell signing by next Tuesday, or not.
