A fully-uniformed Coker hit the practice field on Tuesday, ahead of this weekend's road matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles
. And with his quad injury now getting two weeks of reprieve from in-game action, the third-year receiver was asked about his chances for suiting up on Sunday.Here's what he told Steve Reed of The Associated Press following this afternoon's session . . .

Coker sustained the setback in the Week 3 loss to the Cleveland Browns,
where he reeled in a pair of receptions for 18 yards before exiting in the second half. He was then held out of the Week 4 win over the Detroit Lions and is fresh off some extra rest from the Week 5 bye.
The Panthers are expected to issue a their first official injury report on Wednesday.
