Rookie defensive tackle Bravvion Roy will also get more playing time with Short sidelined.
Rhule said Short would travel with the team and continue to receive treatment throughout the weekend. The hope is Short will be back for Week 3 against the Chargers.
Defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos (concussion) is also out Sunday. Rhule said earlier this week Stephen Weatherly and Marquis Haynes would take the bulk of snaps at defensive end opposite Brian Burns. Defensive end Efe Obada will likely play a role in the rotation, with the flexibility to play defensive tackle in certain situations.
As expected, Panthers left guard Dennis Daley (ankle) remains out for Week 2.
On the other side, Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (concussion) was at practice Friday but is still listed as doubtful for Sunday's game. The wideout has recorded at least 100 yards in each of the last three meetings between Carolina and Tampa Bay, including 10 catches for 151 yards in London last year.
