Panthers WR Diontae Johnson misses 2nd straight practice on Thursday
The Carolina Panthers were without their No. 1 receiver for the second straight day this week.
After being held out of Wednesday's practice, wideout Diontae Johnson did not participate in Thursday's session. Johnson—who leads the team in receptions (29), receiving yards (340) and receiving touchdowns (three)—has been dealing with an ankle injury.
Fellow starter and outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney also remained sidelined. The three-time Pro Bowler injured his shoulder during the Week 5 loss to the Chicago Bears.
Joining them was right tackle Taylor Moton, who missed the very first game of his NFL career this past Sunday due to an elbow issue.
