The Panthers gear up for their trip to the SoFi stadium. As their game against the LA Rams comes closer, their injury list seems to be growing. And according to the latest reports, Baker Mayfield might not be available for the Sunday match-up.

While the Carolina Panthers look to transition from one coach to another, their path seems rockier now with both their preferred quarterbacks out with injuries. While Sam Darnold is still placed on the injury reserve. It now appears that Baker Mayfield might also not see any action on Sunday.

As per the latest reports, the Carolina Panthers have listed Baker as questionable for the next game. The quarterback was struggling with an ankle sprain, which he picked up against the San Francisco 49ers. On the brighter side of things, he was out of the protective boots for their last practice session. However, the player did not participate in any team sessions.

Interim head coach Steve Wilks also did everything but in the end, confirmed the quarterback’s absence. While he told the press that Baker had a great workout and looked good. He also admitted to still going with PJ Walker as the starter, as things stand.
