2024 Fantasy Outlook
After trading outside linebacker Brian Burnes to the Giants in March, the Panthers made it a priority to fortify a seemingly weak room of pass rushers by adding both Wonnum and Jadeveon Clowney in free agency. Wonnum is coming off the most productive season of his young career, tallying 62 tackles, including 8.0 sacks, 38 pressures and seven passes defended in 15 games with the Vikings. He'll line up opposite Clowney for the Panthers defense in 2024, and the two should make an impact as a solid pass-rushing duo. Read Past Outlooks
Limited Wednesday
Wonnum (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wonnum played through his knee injury and served as one of the Panthers' top defensive playmakers in Sunday's loss to the Eagles, recording five total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over 42 defensive snaps. It's likely that Wednesday's limited practice session is precautionary, but Wonnum's participation Thursday and Friday will be the best indication of whether he can suit up in Week 15, when the Panthers host the Cowboys.

After starting 16 games in 2021, Wonnum saw his role decreased for the Vikings last season. He totaled 38 tackles, including four sacks, while playing 16 games and starting just one. It looks like he will again play a rotational on the edge in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might begin camp on PUP list
Wonnum has missed the Panthers' offseason program while dealing with complications from quadriceps surgery, and he appears likely to begin training camp on the PUP list, Joseph Person of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old edge rusher was signed as a free agent in the offseason after recording eight sacks and a career-high 62 tackles with the Vikings in 2023. Wonnum has yet to practice with his new club, however, putting his availability for camp in serious doubt. He still has time to get healthy prior to Week 1, but he'll need to show progress soon.
