The Carolina Panthers are saying there's a chance that they'll get a huge presence back on Saturday.

Right guard Robert Hunt, who has been sidelined since tearing his biceps in Week 2, is considered questionable for this weekend's massive NFC South showdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 2024 Pro Bowler was listed as a full participant in practice for both Tuesday and Wednesday, and finished out the week as limited on Thursday.

Head coach Dave Canales was asked about Hunt's chances of suiting up in Tampa.

"Rob was able to do a little bit more, but we gotta see how his body responds tomorrow—and that's why it's questionable right now," Canales told reporters following this afternoon's session. "We were able to kinda ramp up his work, but it's like the recovery of, 'What does this thing feel like the next day? Where are we at in terms of full football readiness?'"

Austin Corbett has started at right guard for the Panthers in four of their last six games.
