Two catches in Week 17
Horn caught both of his targets for nine yards during Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: The 23-year-old recorded the second-most receiving yards on the Panthers during the Week 17 loss, trailing just Jalen Coker (2-16-0). Horn has now received at least one offensive touch in each of Carolina's last three games, suggesting his role is growing as the season progresses. Across 13 appearances, he's caught 10 of 14 targets for 93 yards while rushing eight times for 69 yards. Expect Carolina to continue utilizing Horn's speed in the Week 18 matchup against the Buccaneers on Saturday.

Muted role in Week 15
Horn recorded a seven-yard reception on his lone target in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Horn took the field for just four of Carolina's 57 plays on offense, marking the fourth straight game he played single-digit snaps. He had played double-digit snaps in all but one of Carolina's six games between Weeks 5 and 10, but Brycen Tremayne appears to have since leapfrogged him on the depth chart as the Panthers' preferred No. 4 wideout behind Tetairoa McMillan (foot/ankle), Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker.

No touches in Week 10
Horn was not targeted and didn't log a carry in Sunday's 17-7 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: The Panthers attempted an end-around to Horn late in the third quarter, but a miscommunication between him and Bryce Young led to a fumble that was credited to the quarterback. Horn, a 2025 sixth-round pick from Colorado, had received at least two touches in every game since the Week 5 win over Miami. He's appeared in seven games, catching six of 10 targets for 66 yards and rushing seven times for 44 yards. Horn will likely remain a depth option in Carolina's offense in the Week 11 matchup…read more

Minimal output in win
Horn caught one of two targets for one yard and rushed once for seven yards during Sunday's 16-13 win over the Packers.
Analysis: The 23-year-old played just 13 offensive snaps and operated as Carolina's No. 4 wideout in the Week 9 win. Through his first five NFL games, Horn has caught six of 10 targets for 66 yards and rushed seven times for 44 yards. He's likely to continue playing a depth role in the Panthers' receiving corps ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Saints.

Practices in full
Horn (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Horn was forced out of Carolina's blowout loss to the Bills in Week 8 due to a shoulder injury after playing just eight offensive snaps, but he appears fully on track to suit up for the team's road matchup against Green Bay on Sunday. The rookie sixth-round pick has compiled five catches for 65 yards (on eight targets) across five regular-season appearances so far.

Leaves game with shoulder injury
Horn is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills due to a shoulder injury, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Horn sustained the injury during the second quarter, and he will have his shoulder evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. With Hunter Renfrow (coach's decision), inactive, Brycen Tremayne is in line to see an expanded role on offense for as long as Horn is out of the game.

Smaller workload in Week 7
Horn caught one of two targets for eight yards and rushed once for seven yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Horn's role on the Panthers' offense shrank with the return of Jalen Coker in the Week 7 win. The 2025 sixth-round pick from Colorado has now recorded five catches for 65 yards and four carries for 28 yards over his first three games as a pro. While Horn could be more involved in Carolina's offense as the season progresses, he's likely to play another reserve role in the Week 8 matchup against the Bills.

Impresses again in Week 6
Horn caught both of his targets for 36 yards and rushed once for 11 yards during Sunday's 30-27 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: The 2025 sixth-round pick from Colorado has been increasingly involved in Carolina's offense over the past two weeks, catching four of his five targets for 57 yards and rushing three times for 21 yards. Horn led all Panthers wideouts in receiving yards during Sunday's win, suggesting he's already carved out a meaningful role in the offense. Although Jalen Coker (quadriceps) is likely returning from injury soon, Horn is expected to be a key part of the Carolina's offensive game plan in a Week 7…read more

Solid performance in NFL debut
Horn caught two of three targets for 21 yards and rushed twice for 10 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: After being a healthy scratch in each of the Panthers' first four games this year, Horn played an important role in Sunday's win. The rookie from Colorado showcased his explosiveness and made a key 17-yard catch on fourth down to help set up Carolina's go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter. Although Jalen Coker (quadriceps) will likely return from injury soon, Horn's role on the Panthers' offense could continue to grow in the Week 6 matchup against the Cowboys.

In line for more work in Week 5?
Head coach Dave Canales told reporters Monday that he's excited for Horn to get opportunities as a wide receiver as soon as this week, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The rookie wideout has been a healthy scratch in each of the Panthers' first four games this season, despite injuries to Xavier Legette (hamstring) and Jalen Coker (quadriceps). Carolina's receiving corps has largely struggled outside of Tetairoa McMillan over the last two games, as the team's second-leading receiver over that span is Brycen Tremayne with five catches for 51 yards. Horn ran a 4.46-second 40-yard dash and could provide the Panthers with a much-needed deep threat, especially…read more

Horn caught his lone target for 13 yards in Thursday's 19-10 preseason loss to Pittsburgh.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick finishes his inaugural preseason with six catches for 29 yards on seven targets. Horn didn't make any noise toward a meaningful Week 1 role, but he at least seems on track for one of the final roster spots, with a chance to return kicks and/or punts.

Past hamstring issue
Horn (hamstring) participated in Wednesday's practice, Darin Gantt and Kassidy Hill of the Panthers' official site report.
Analysis: Horn suffered a hamstring injury during OTAs in June, but he looks to be past the issue. He spent a good portion of Wednesday's practice fielding punts, and the rookie sixth-rounder would carve a spot for himself on the 53-man roster were he to win that job.
