Ready to return Burris (concussion) practiced fully Friday and is on track to play Sunday against the Broncos, according to the Panthers' injury report.
Impact Burris has missed each of Carolina's last three contests due to a concussion, but his ability to log full activity in both Thursday's and Friday's sessions implies that he's not at risk of missing a fourth consecutive matchup. Across four games played this season, the veteran safety has amassed 18 tackles and one pass defensed, but he'll likely yield defensive snaps to fellow safeties Xavier Woods and Jeremy Chinn this weekend.

Questionable for Week 8 Burris (hip) is questionable to play Sunday against the Falcons.
Impact Burris popped up on the injury report after he logged a limited practice Friday and is officially considered questionable to go in Week 8 versus Atlanta. The safety seems likely to have a shot at playing considering he was active for all the practice sessions this week, but his status is worth monitoring. If he's forced to miss the contest, Sam Franklin and Sean Chandler could see an uptick in usage in Carolina's secondary.

Eight tackles in loss Burris recorded eight tackles (six solo) and one pass defense during Sunday's 37-15 loss to the 49ers.
Impact Burris was signed to the active roster from the practice squad after Jeremy Chinn (hamstring) was placed on IR. Burris got the start at strong safety over Sean Chandler and made the most of his opportunity by finishing second on the team in tackle behind Damien Wilson. However, Carolina's defense struggled as a whole, so it's unclear if Burris will keep the starting gig moving forward.

Signs to active roster Burris was signed to the active roster from the Panthers' practice squad Thursday, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.
Impact Burris' addition to the active roster comes one day after fellow safety, Jeremy Chinn, was placed on IR due to a hamstring injury. Burris played in 23 games for the Panthers between the 2020 and 2021 seasons, and he did spend time starting at safety for the team last season. Whether he or Sean Chandler gets the nod as the starting free safety remains to be seen, but Burris will be in uniform when Carolina hosts the 49ers on Sunday.
