The young M star TWA 7 hosts a bright and near face-on debris disk, which has been imaged from the optical to the submillimeter. The disk displays multiple complex substructures such as three disk components, a large dust clump, and spiral arms, suggesting the presence of planets to actively sculpt these features. The evidence for planets in this disk was further strengthened with the recent detection of a point source compatible with a Saturn-mass planet companion using JWST/MIRI at 11 μm, at the location a planet was predicted to reside based on the disk morphology. In this Letter, we present new observations of the TWA 7 system with JWST/NIRCam in the F200W and F444W filters. The disk is detected at both wavelengths and presents many of the same substructures as previously imaged, although we do not robustly detect the southern spiral arm. Furthermore, we detect two faint potential companions in the F444W filter at the 2σ-3σ level. While one of these companions needs further follow-up to determine its nature, the other one coincides with the location of the planet candidate imaged with MIRI, providing further evidence that this source is a sub-Jupiter-mass planet companion rather than a background galaxy. Such discoveries make TWA 7 only the second system, after β Pictoris, in which a planet predicted by the debris disk morphology has been detected.
