According to ESPN, Horn did not participate in 18 games in two seasons, his absence was due to injuries.
Now, he will miss the match which will be played between Carolina Panthers and New Orleans Saints.
According to NFL, Head Coach Frank Reich told the media that the cornerback had suffered a “serious” and “freak” hamstring injury.
Horn was selected eighth overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. After being hurt during a defensive series, the cornerback held his lower leg and went to the locker room. He was initially deemed unlikely to come back.
In Horn’s place, Troy Hill might come according to the head coach Reich. Horn’s first season was cut short by a foot injury he sustained in the third game. He also missed the final four games of the 2022 campaign due to a broken wrist.
