Carolina Panthers cornerback Corey Thornton will miss the rest of the season with a broken fibula.

The undrafted rookie sustained the leg injury in Monday night's loss to the San Francisco 49ers, head coach Dave Canales confirmed Tuesday.

Thornton, 25, had appeared in every game for the Panthers (6-6), recording 14 tackles, three passes defensed and one forced fumble.

Carolina also lost starting cornerback Jaycee Horn to a concussion in the 20-9 loss on Monday.
