Goes to IR
Carolina placed Vilain (knee) on its injured reserve list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
After sustaining a knee injury during Sunday's game versus Indianapolis, Vilain will now have to miss at least the Panthers' next four games as he recovers. He's played exclusively on special teams so far in 2023, so Carolina will have to try to find a way to replace his production in that phase until he's healthy enough to suit back up.
Questionable to return
Vilain has left Sunday's game against the Colts due to a knee injury, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Vilain was seeing action for the second time this season, but his time on the field may end up being cut short by the injury. The Wake Forest product's absence will likely only impact the Panthers on special teams.
