One of the most exciting storylines Week 11 of the 2021 NFL season features a clash between the Carolina Panthers and the Washington Football Team. Cam Newton will return as the starting quarterback for the Carolina Panthers while his former head coach, Ron Rivera, is now with the Washington Football Team.
Cam Newton and Ron Rivera had a ton of success as a tandem with the Panthers and even made it all the way to Super Bowl. Cam Newton will look to regain his old form in Week 11 with the Panthers, while Ron Rivera will try to urge Washington to build off of its momentum from last week when they scored an upset victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The Panthers have just one player on the injury report for Week 11. Cornerback Stantley Thomas-Oliver III is questionable with a toe injury and will make a game-time decision. He was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday but was limited on Friday. Late-week regression is never a good sign of game availability, so he may miss this one for the Panthers.
Washington Football Team Injury Report
Tight end Ricky Seals-Jones has not practiced at all this week so he is officially ruled out. Benjamin St-Juste was a full participant in practice on Friday, so he has a decent chance to play against the Panthers if he can clear all concussion protocols this weekend. The other three players listed as questionable all recorded limited sessions at practice and will be game-time decisions.
