Which Carolina Panthers players need to step up following some serious COVID-19 concerns this week?

A rollercoaster 2020 season took another concerning twist this week. The Carolina Panthers returned from their bye week and instantly put another eight players on the reserve/COVID-19 list, making it 10 in total, which has thrown a significant spanner in the works ahead of their Week 14 game against the Denver Broncos at Bank of America Stadium.

This is yet another obstacle to overcome for head coach Matt Rhule. The former Baylor man has not had things easy since making the move from college by any stretch of the imagination and potentially being without some prominent playmakers on both sides of the ball is only going to complicate matters further.
