Trevin Wallace: Everything you need to know

Wallace (shoulder) was placed on the injured reserve list Saturday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. Wallace underwent season-ending shoulder surgery earlier in the week, so it's no surprise that he's been placed on IR. The second-year pro from Kentucky was one of Carolina's most impactful defenders this season, recording 61 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and four passes defensed over 12 appearances. With Wallace sidelined for the remainder of the Panthers' 2025 campaign, expect Claudin Cherelus to start alongside Christian Rozeboom in the team's inside linebacker corps.

Wallace (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Seattle. Wallace will end up missing a second consecutive game due to a shoulder injury that he sustained in practice during Week 16 prep, and his next opportunity to play is the Panthers' regular-season finale against the Buccaneers in Week 18. Claudin Cherelus will likely start at inside linebacker for a second straight game in Wallace's absence.

Wallace (shoulder) didn't participate in Carolina's practice Wednesday. Wallace continues to battle the shoulder injury that held him out of the Week 16 win over Tampa Bay. Claudin Cherelus would make another start at inside linebacker if Wallace remains sidelined for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
