Good. He's earned it. It's not like he's going to slack off in his preparation.

In other words don’t expect more of Reggie B that was an emergency use only. Run him dry but I’ll rest him on Wednesday’s now lol.

My first thought as well.

I've long said that until we stop hearing vet day, pitch count, and new normal, I won't think that Cam is back in the least.

That said, I think CMC's back likely is sore, and I think that he will be ready to roll on Sunday.

Hahahahaahhahaahahaha!!!  I told my good friend that this is the cost of doing business with Norv.  Does anybody remember Emmitt Smith's back up?  Yeah, me either.  And I remember L. Tomlinson's, but he didn't get to play until he left to go to Atlanta.

Norv said he had a plan for resting CMC... guess no work on HumpDay was it

This is why the Panthers can't have nice things.
