He finished 2024 with 97 tackles (51 solo), including 3.5 sacks, seven pass breakups, including an interception, and two fumble recoveries in 12 games.

  Rotowire Jan 3, 2025

  Jewell (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons. Jewell was DNP all week long and will miss a second straight contest due to the concussion. Jewell's 2024 ends with 97 tackles (51 solo), including seven TFLs and 3.5 sacks, seven pass breakups, including one interception, and a pair of fumble recoveries across 12 appearances. Chandler Wooten should once again fill in at linebacker for Week 18 against Atlanta.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Held out of practice Wednesday

  Rotowire Jan 1, 2025

  Jewell (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday. Jewell is no longer listed as having a quadriceps injury, as he was last week, but the linebacker continues to be in concussion protocol and still isn't practicing. The 30-year-old missed this past Sunday's Week 17 game against Tampa Bay and isn't certain to be able to return for the Panthers' season finale Sunday against Atlanta. Chandler Wooten stepped into a starting role last week in Jewell's stead.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Out for Week 17

  Rotowire Dec 27, 2024

  Jewell (concussion/quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs. Carolina is dipping deep into its reserves for help at linebacker this late into the season. With Jewell out for Week 17 and now seemingly in the concussion protocol, he joins Trevin Wallace (shoulder, IR), Shaq Thompson (Achilles, IR) and Claudin Cherelus (toe, IR) on the sidelines. The Panthers are down to Jacoby Windmon, Jon Rhattigan and Chandler Wooten as their healthy linebackers ahead of a date with Bucky Irving.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Doesn't practice Thursday

  Rotowire Dec 26, 2024

  Jewell (neck/head/quadriceps) did not participate in Thursday's practice. Jewell was able to participate in Tuesday's half-speed practice, but he was held out of Thursday's session due to a trio of injuries. If he's unable to return to practice Friday, he would likely be ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. With Trevin Wallace (shoulder) on injured reserve, Jon Rhattigan and Chandler Wooten would be the top candidates to start at inside linebacker alongside Jacoby Windmon if Jewell is unable to play.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Ready to rock

  Rotowire Dec 20, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals. Jewell has been nursing a hamstring injury throughout December that held him out of practice Wednesday, but he logged a full session Friday, indicating the issue won't hinder him enough to be sidelined in Week 16. The Iowa product has recorded 10 total tackles in each of his last three contests and is expected to serve as one of the Panthers' defensive leaders in Sunday's game.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Still nursing hamstring injury

  Rotowire Dec 19, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. Jewell has played through a hamstring injury through most of December, but that hasn't caused a dip in his production as he's logged 10 total tackles in each of his last three games. Unless he downgrades to a DNP on Friday's injury report, Jewell is expected to play against the Cardinals on Sunday.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Good to go

  Rotowire Dec 15, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) is available for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, David Newton of ESPN.com reports. Jewell will once again play through a hamstring injury despite being listed as questionable. Since Carolina's Week 11 bye, Jewell has recorded 29 tackles (17 solo) and 3.5 sacks in three games.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Logs limited session Wednesday

  Rotowire Dec 11, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Newton of ESPN.com reports. Jewell was able to play through his hamstring injury in the Panthers' Week 14 loss to the Eagles, tallying a team-leading 10 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, across 56 defensive snaps. Wednesday's limited session is likely precautionary, however, the 29-year-old linebacker could be in jeopardy of missing a Week 15 contest against the Cowboys if he aggravated the injury in Sunday's loss.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Iffy to play Week 14

  Rotowire Dec 6, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Philadelphia, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports. Jewell had his DNP on Thursday sandwiched between limited practices as he works through a hamstring injury he likely picked up in Carolina's Week 13 loss to Tampa Bay. His return to practice Friday is a step in the right direction, but his official status for Sunday's game might not be known until the Panthers announce their inactives list approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Jewell is unable to play Sunday, Claudin Cherelus would be the top candidate to start at inside linebacker alongside Trevin Wallace.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Downgrades to DNP on Thursday

  Rotowire Dec 5, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) did not participate in Thursday's practice. Jewell practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, so his lack of participation Thursday represents a clear step in the wrong direction. The veteran linebacker was Carolina's leading tackler Week 13 against the Buccaneers and is an integral every-down player for a defensive front that can't spare any more attrition to injury. He'll likely need to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday to have any chance of being available for Sunday's road matchup against the Eagles.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Leading tackler in loss

  Rotowire Dec 2, 2024

  Jewell recorded 10 total tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks and an additional tackle for loss, in Sunday's 26-23 overtime loss to the Buccaneers. For the second consecutive week, Jewell got after the quarterback and led the Panthers in total tackles. The 30-year-old linebacker has been a significant part of Carolina's defensive improvements over their last three games, recording 25 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and defending two passes, with one interception. Jewell has also played 100 percent of the Panthers' defensive snaps in three consecutive contests, solidifying his status as a viable IDP choice as the season progresses.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Comes up with two takeaways Sunday

  Rotowire Nov 11, 2024

  Jewell recorded six tackles (two solo), an interception and a fumble recovery during Sunday's 20-17 overtime win against the Giants. Jewell's interception came in the red zone during the fourth quarter, protecting what was at the time a 17-14 Panthers lead. The linebacker's fumble recovery came on the first play from scrimmage in overtime to set up a game-winning field goal. He projects as a dependable IDP option in most formats for the second half of the season.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Notches 10 tackles in loss

  Rotowire Oct 28, 2024

  Jewell recorded 10 total tackles (six solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Broncos. Jewell had missed the Panthers' last three games due to a hamstring injury sustained in Carolina's Week 4 loss to the Bengals before returning Sunday. The Iowa product picked up right where he left off, notching his second double-digit tackle performance of the season. With Shaq Thompson (Achilles) sidelined for the remainder of the season, Jewell will likely take on a larger role in the Panthers' defense and could be a viable IDP option on a weekly basis moving forward.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Making return against Denver

  Rotowire Oct 27, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) is active for Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Broncos, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. Jewell hurt his hamstring Week 4 against Cincinnati and missed each of Carolina's subsequent three contests. However, he's set to return against Denver after logging a trio of limited practices this week. Jewell tallied 30 tackles (17 solo) and three pass defenses over the first four weeks of the season.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Returning in Week 8?

  Rotowire Oct 25, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos. Jewell has missed the Panthers' last three games after sustaining a hamstring injury in the team's Week 4 loss to the Bengals. However, it appears he could return Sunday after logging a week of limited practice sessions. If Jewell is forced to miss his fourth consecutive contest in Week 8, expect Claudin Cherelus (hamstring) and Shaquille Quarterman to see increased work in the Panthers' inside linebacker corps.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Unavailable for Week 7

  Rotowire Oct 18, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders. Jewell didn't practice in any capacity this week, so it's unsurprising to see him ruled out for a third straight game. With backup Claudin Cherelus (hamstring) also unavailable for Sunday, though, Washington will be in position to potentially take advantage of a depleted Panthers' interior-linebacker group. Jewell's next chance to return will come Week 8 against the Broncos.

• Panthers' Josey Jewell: Misses Wednesday's practice

  Rotowire Oct 16, 2024

  Jewell (hamstring/groin) didn't practice Wednesday. Jewell has missed the Panthers' last two games due to hamstring and groin injuries, and Wednesday's DNP suggest he could miss even more time. The 29-year-old inside linebacker will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for the Panthers' Week 7 matchup against the Commanders.
