Thielen, who remained on this week’s injury report due to his hamstring strain, was not listed with a game designation for the team’s Week 13 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was considered a non-participant for practice on Wednesday, a full participant on Thursday and a limited participant on Friday.

Being healthy plays a role in the team’s success, though it has also been shown to be one of the biggest issues this Bucs team faces in 2024.

As expected, the Carolina Panthers will not have a couple of standout rookies for Week 13. The team announced on Friday that wide receiver Jalen Coker and tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders are out for Sunday's matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
