Panthers' Jaycee Horn Injured in Car Accident

Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn was involved in a car accident near Bank of America Stadium on Wednesday morning, suffering a minor injury that required a few stitches in his left thumb. He was evaluated by team medical personnel but did not require hospitalization and was held out of a joint practice with the Cleveland Browns as a precaution. Head coach Dave Canales stated Horn is considered day-to-day and will miss Friday's preseason game against the Browns, though the team hopes he will return for the next preseason matchup. Horn was present on the sidelines and interacted with teammates despite his injury. Entering his fifth NFL season and fresh off his first Pro Bowl, Horn recently signed a four-year, $100 million contract extension, highlighting his importance to the Panthers. The team continues to monitor his status as the preseason progresses.
