I swear Laviska is always hurt.  Never has anyone played so little and hurt so much.  
 

Excerpts from Ellis Williams, Charlotte Observer 

The Carolina Panthers may be without two of their top receivers Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Laviska Shenault is another pillar of the Panthers’ run-pass option scheme. His presence as a slot receiver running bubble screens threatens opposing linebackers and forces them to expand with him, which opens run lanes for running backs D’Onta Foreman, Chuba Hubbard, and Raheem Blackshear.

One concern that was D.J. (Moore) was limited and still is questionable. We’ll check his status as we proceed and move forward,” Panthers interim coach Steve Wilks said. “It’s not so much of a setback. It just really is trying to see whether or not he’s going to be able to sustain and be efficient.”

Tee Higgins is next man up for Laviska

Shenault’s style of play will probably lead to a lot of injuries. 

If only we could run curls and slants to him so he can catch and go instead of always running that same dam play all season. Even go routes In Jacksonville he ran regular routes what’s the dam problem here.

DJ don’t want to play.. he knows the game plan for him sub-7 attempts his way (he gets 3:4, 37yds) ..

 

that kid seems worn out by the ineptitude of most of the last few seasons… even now that there some competence at the helm, we’re straight run heavy, denying that man the opportunity to prove his skill set…

 

he’s a peacock, he needs to fly….

Mcadoo has no creativity in his offense. Shenault wasn’t here at the beginning of camp. Mcadoo finds one play that mostly works and just keeps running it over and over because he’s too lazy to try to figure out other ways that might move the ball with this player. “6 yards, sounds good enough to me.”  That being said, shenault definitely runs to the contact instead of away from it.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction

      Better than a fragile starter, though
