  • Returns from injury

    Chinn (back) was spotted taking reps at nickel during Wednesday's OTAs, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Chinn spent the final two weeks of Las Vegas' 2025 campaign on IR with a back injury, but it appears he's moved past the issue. The Southern Illinois product is entering the final year of his contract after posting 114 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, two passes defensed and two forced fumbles across 15 games last season. He's expected to remain a crucial part of the Raiders' defense during 2026.

  • Officially placed on IR

    Las Vegas placed Chinn (back) on injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: Chinn played almost every defensive snap in each of the Raiders' first 15 games, but he's been dealing with a back injury for most of December. Las Vegas is firmly in the hunt for the No. 1 overall pick in next year's NFL Draft and has no reason to expose Chinn to potentially worsening the issue, so the team has chosen to shut him down. Chinn will end the campaign with 114 tackles (including 1.0 sacks), two forced fumbles and two defensed passes.

  • Season likely over

    The Raiders are reportedly set to place Chinn on IR due to a back injury, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Chinn has been dealing with a back issue for most of December, but to this point the injury hasn't caused him to miss any games. With the Raiders tied for the league's worst record (2-13) and in the driver's seat for the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, the team appears to be shutting Chinn down. If that's indeed the case, he'll finish his first season in Las Vegas with 114 tackles (including 1.0 sacks), two forced fumbles and two defensed passes over 15 contests.

  • Logs seven stops in Week 16 loss

    Chinn registered seven tackles (three solo) during the Raiders' 23-21 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

    Analysis: Chinn was working through a back issue during Week 16 prep, but it didn't appear to bother him, as he was able to play every defensive snap while finishing tied for the third-most tackles on the Raiders behind Devin White (11) and Elandon Roberts (eight). Chinn is up to 114 combined tackles through 15 regular-season games and is just three stops shy from matching a career high that he set with the Panthers in 2020 and the Commanders in 2024. He'll have an opportunity to create a new career high…read more

  • Back in action

    Chinn (back) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Chinn has missed just one defensive snap all season, and being cleared of any injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest means he will likely keep his missed snap count in the single digits. The safety has accumulated 107 tackles (60 solo), including 1.0 sacks, so far this season, and he will look to add to that number when he suits up on Sunday.

    Chinn (back) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Chinn upgraded to limited participation Thursday after being unable to participate in Wednesday's session. The safety has missed just one defensive snap all season, and Thursday's upgrade in practice participation is a good sign that he will play in Sunday's game against the Texans. Chinn will have one more opportunity to upgrade to a full participant in the hopes of avoiding an injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest.

    Analysis: Chinn played through a back issue in the Raiders' Week 14 loss to the Broncos after being unable to practice the Friday before the contest. The safety's limited practice Thursday means he has already practiced more with the injury than he was able to last week, which bodes well for his chances of suiting up for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: It was an ugly day for the Raiders as the team got routed by 34 points, but from an IDP perspective Chinn was solid by notching 10 stops.

    The Commanders and Chinn have agreed to terms on a one-year deal, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The deal is worth up to $5.1 million, according to Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com. After playing at least 91 percent of the defensive snaps in each of his first three seasons, Chinn's role on defense was significantly scaled back in 2023. He saw action on just 39 percent of the defensive snaps in the 12 games in which he was healthy. Washington is a good change of scenery for Chinn, who will now get to work with defensive guru coach Dan Quinn and DC Joe Whitt.

  • Worst season of career

    Chinn finished the regular season with 30 tackles (18 solo), including one sack, and one pass defended in 12 games.

    Analysis: Chinn's production has declined across each of his four NFL seasons, with his 2023 output marking a steep drop-off from his prior years. Although Chinn missed a handful of games while dealing with a quadriceps injury, the once-integral member of Carolina's defense was more of an afterthought this term. As a result, it wouldn't be surprising to see the 2020 second-round pick land elsewhere as an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

    Analysis: The 2020 second-round pick was able to log a limited week of practice sessions, and even after being activated from IR, he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's contest. Chinn had appeared in six games before suffering a quadriceps injury, recording 23 total tackles, including two tackles for loss and 1.0 sacks.

    Chinn (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay.

The safety was limited in all three of Carolina's practices this week, and if he can upgrade to full participation in the lead-up to a Week 13 game against the Buccaneers, Chinn has a good chance of making his return then. He will need to be officially activated from IR in order to play.

The fourth-year safety out of Southern Illinois has 23 tackles (15 solo) and a pass deflection in six games this season. Chinn will be forced to miss at least the next four games while on IR, which would mean that his earliest date to return would be Week 12 against the Titans.

The 2020 second-round pick is listed as a safety but has spent a lot of time guarding the slot the past few seasons, essentially functioning as Carolina's nickelback.

  • New role in 2023

    Chinn's primary role on the Panthers' defense in 2023 will be nickelback, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: Chinn played linebacker as a rookie and safety the subsequent two years, but he is now set to morph into a quasi-corner role who is closer to the line of scrimmage and asked to cover more. The 25-year-old feels comfortable in what he is being asked to do, and the Panthers think they have finally found the right role for him. He recorded 70 tackles (51 solo), six passes defensed and one sack across 11 games in 2022.

  • Injury-marred 2022 campaign

    Chinn made 70 tackles (51 solo), one sack and defended six passes while playing only 11 games in the 2022 season.

    Analysis: Chinn's streak of 100-plus tackle campaigns ended in his third year, as a hamstring injury forced him to miss a significant chunk of the campaign. When healthy, Chinn was his usual productive self, with his six pass breakups actually marking a career high. With 2023 representing the final year of the 2020 second-round pick's rookie deal, Chinn will be shooting for a pay day and a good bill of health in order to return to his previous heights.

  • Makes first pick

    Chinn finished with five tackles (four solo) and defended two passes, including an interception, in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: Chinn didn't accumulate his usual tackling volume, but he nonetheless made a significant impact by intercepting a pass during the third quarter. With big plays and a near every-down role, Chinn has been among the best defensive rookies through this season's first six weeks.

  • Another productive outing

    Chinn finished with nine tackles (six solo) and defended a pass in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Falcons.

  • Ready for Week 4

    Chinn (hip) is not listed on Friday's injury report.

    Analysis: Chinn logged a trio of limited practices due to his hip injury, but it looks like he's functionally back to full health. The rookie second-round pick will look to keep up his tackle streak (27 in just three games) against the Cardinals on Sunday.

  • Another big day

    Chinn finished with 12 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Chinn's total included one stop for loss and he also registered a QB hit. While once again playing 100 percent of Carolina's defensive snaps, the rookie trailed only Shaq Thompson for the team lead in tackles. Through three games, he's appeared unfazed by the transition from Southern Illinois to the NFL, as no Panther sports more than his 27 total tackles.

  • Makes seven stops

    Chinn made seven tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Chinn tied for the Panthers' team lead in tackles and now paces them with 15 stops through the first two weeks. The rookie also took a direct snap on a fake punt Sunday but was stuffed after one yard on the failed attempt. In playing all but one defensive snap, it's clear Chinn is already an instrumental piece of coordinator Phil Snow's scheme, giving him solid value ahead of Week 3's trip to face the Chargers.

  • Does well in debut

    Chinn finished with eight tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Raiders.

    Analysis: Chinn started at strong-side linebacker and played all 63 defensive snaps in his NFL debut. If that wasn't impressive enough for the Southern Illinois product, Chinn also trailed only Shaq Thompson for Carolina's team lead in tackles. Given his excellent blend of versatility and athleticism, Chinn could be one of the more productive rookies this season, particularly given the opportunities available on a young Panthers defense.

  • Starting in Week 1

    Chinn will start at strong-side linebacker in Sunday's game versus the Raiders, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Chinn played safety at Southern Illinois, but the rookie second-rounder proved enough in camp to secure a starting linebacker role to begin the season. He played well in coverage during his collegiate career with 13 interceptions and 31 pass breakups, so he could key in on TE Darren Waller on Sunday.
