GREEN BAY – The Packers have listed receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder/foot), defensive tackles Devonte Wyatt (ankle) and Anthony Campbell (ankle), and edge rusher Brenton Cox Jr. (quadricep) as questionable for Thursday night against Carolina.

Green Bay has ruled out linebacker Zaire Franklin (shin), guard/tackle Travis Glover (knee) and center Sean Rhyan (ankle).

Golden and Wyatt briefly exited during Sunday's 20-17 loss in Detroit but returned to finish the game. Both were estimated as nonparticipants on Monday's injury report before being upgraded to limited (Wyatt on Tuesday and Golden on Wednesday).

Head Coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday evening he was hopeful Golden might be available against the Panthers.

"I sure hope so," LaFleur said. "We will have a short indy (Wednesday) to move guys around to see how they look, but certainly hopeful for him."

Glover played all 67 snaps at right guard against the Lions but reported knee pain the following day. Rhyan injured his ankle on the fourth snap against the Lions, with second-year veteran John Williams finishing the game at center.

The Packers have not stated who will start against Carolina in place of Rhyan and Glover but have several options. Kevin Zeitler, Jager Burton and Donovan Jennings were all healthy scratches in Detroit while veteran Aaron Banks (knee/toe) will be available against Carolina after being promoted to full participation Friday.

In addition to Banks, cornerback Benjamin St-Juste (hamstring) didn't receive a game status and will be available against the Panthers.

Carolina ruled out linebacker Jaelan Phillips (hamstring), guard Damien Lewis (knee), guard Torricelli Simpkins (ankle) and cornerback Akayleb Evans (triceps/knee).

The Panthers listed defensive tackle Bobby Brown (hand) as questionable and didn't issue a game status for quarterback Bryce Young (knee), receiver Jalen Coker (shoulder) and kicker Ryan Fitzgerald (illness), who will all play Thursday night.
