ImpactMeans was amid an increased role with Rashid Shaheed (knee) out of action, but the rookie receiver will now join him on the sidelines. It's unclear how much time the Pittsburgh product will miss, but he's likely looking at a multi-week absence.

Juwan Johnson - Cleared after being evaluatedSaints head coach Dennis Allen said Monday that Johnson (head) is fully cleared after having been evaluated for a concussion during Sunday's loss to the Chargers, Ross Jackson of W...

ImpactJohnson was evaluated late during New Orleans' loss to Los Angeles in Week 8, but he's good to go for Sunday's road matchup against Carolina. Prior to being forced out versus the Chargers, Johnson had secured three of four targets for 48 yards. With quarterback Derek Carr (oblique) trending in the right direction to return Week 9, Johnson and the Saints' passing game as a whole could be positioned to benefit from a notable boost.

Derek Carr - Expected to return Week 9Saints head coach Dennis Allen said Monday he expects Carr (oblique) to return to the starting lineup for Sunday's divisional contest against the Panthers, Ross Jackson of WWL Loui...

ImpactCarr has missed three straight games due to a left oblique injury, but Allen said he logged another throwing session Monday and expressed optimism about his chances of retaking the field Week 9. Allen also said he expects Carr to be on the practice field Wednesday. Spencer Rattler has been ineffective across his three consecutive appearances, culminating in his having been pulled early from New Orleans' 26-8 loss to the Chargers in Week 8, in favor of Jake Haener finishing out the contest. Getting Carr back under center would promise a notable boost for the Saints' offense.
