WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. – Rams offensive lineman Kevin Dotson (ankle) and wide receiver Jordan Whittington (knee) have both been ruled out for Saturday's Wild Card round playoff game against the Panthers at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C. (1:30 p.m. PT, FOX).
Dotson's absence means Justin Dedich is slated to start in his place at right guard for the third-straight game, dating back to Week 17 of the regular season.
Meanwhile, tight end Terrance Ferguson (hamstring) and cornerback Josh Wallace (ankle) are listed as questionable. Head coach Sean McVay prior to practice on Friday said that practice would be a determining factor in those two players' availability for Saturday.
For the Panthers, guards Rob Hunt (biceps) and Chandler Zavala (calf) are listed as questionable.
Below are the final injury reports for both teams.
*The Rams held a walkthrough Tuesday, participation for that day is an estimation.
