So, we can likely expect Butler back in September.

If all the information out there is correct, and there is no major damage to Vernon Butler's left knee (knock on wood), I suspect Butler will be back sometime in September. 

Thinking he will be back for week one seems a bit too optimistic. 

Daryl Williams is a similar sized guy and had a similar injury in 2015. He missed five games total. Using that as a general precedent, anywhere from 4-6 weeks seems likely for a 300 pound lineman, imo. 

I suspect the Panthers will eyeball Sept 24 against the Saints for his return. They won't want to risk re-injuring him against the lowly 49ers or Bills in the first two weeks.

    • The motto means nothing if they lay down and submit to the opponent. One of the most embarrassing things I have seen from twenty years of being a fan.  Regardless if the lead seems to be insurmountable, you keep giving 110% untill the final second. Canales is definitely a Beta and it wasn't a good look at all. I wonder what the locker room was whispering about after that sh%t. I hope we never see this again and he actually grows a pair of balls. He needs to look in the mirror and understand that you just don't do that in the NFL. Maybe peewee football so kids don't get hurt. Throw the 3rd stringers in to run the play and finish the game wirh some some pride and don't bend the knee.  
    • No but we should have kept both of them. People complaining about what he got paid can’t say much now because it’s absolutely worth it to get 15 sacks which we could desperately use, especially when you compare it to some of the free agents we have signed to try to replace that production (none of them have come close and we are wasting good money on them) 
    • That period started rough but the canes stayed with it.  They will when this game 3-1 or 4-2 the way it’s going.
