Heading into the second half of their season, the Carolina Panthers need all the playmakers that they can get. On that score, help is on the way.
The Panthers just announced that they have officially designated running back Jonathon Brooks, wide receiver Xavier Legette and cornerback Mike Jackson to return to practice. The team now has 21 days to activate them to the 53-man roster.
Brooks (groin) and Legette (knee) were both injured in the Week 2 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Jackson went down a week later, along with fellow starting corner Jaycee Horn, in the painful three-point loss to the Cleveland Browns.
Head coach Dave Canales hinted towards the returns of Brooks, Legette and Jackson on Monday—calling their progress "very exciting."
