If he plays every game this season or potentially only misses a game for something minor does your perception of him change at all? I saw someone say currently they would not take his fifth year option if this streak continues. What if it does not and he gets through a whole season? Does your mind change?

It’s just freak injuries for now.   So hopefully his run of bad luck is over.

Horn has shown he’s better than Surtain and so far he’s only missed time in seasons that were over before they began, and freak injuries at that rather than chronic ones. Hopefully his career can really start now and prove why he’s worth his draft position.  If he misses a third of the season or more again then I’ll have to rethink my position though heh

9 out of 10 Panthers fans want Jaycee to ball out even if they are skeptical. Only a few trolls have an opposing viewpoint so the rabble rousing about armchair GM's is a waste of keystrokes.

Time to show and prove! Fingers crossed!

What exactly is a "freak" injury? Did a satellite fall out of space and hit him on the head? No. He broke a wrist and and a foot and has been available for less than half the games. Right now he is injury prone until he proves otherwise. Surtain would have been a much better pick.

Back pedaling on poo turf and a teammates helmet accidentally slamming his hand is the epitome of freak injury.

Good player when healthy. Maybe its a good omen that he didn't slam his finger in the car door or trip on the steps going into the dorm.

If they play him in preseason I won’t be optimistic about the staff’s decision making abilities.

I seriously doubt he plays more the a series or two the entire preseason if that.

i know right. not sure how or why that had to be spelled out. 

and when Horn is on the field he is better than Surtain.

I wish Tepper would listen to the players and change back to grass. Take a small percentage of your gazillion dollar budget and just maintain the grass. A lot of these freak lower extremities turf injuries across the league would be solved overnight.

he should play.   as much as any other starter.  we got a new scheme.  Horn hasn't even logged a season yet in the NFL.   We need to be good defensively this year. 

I don't want to go w/ a Mr. Glass mindset.  Also sets a bad tone I think w/ other legit starters.   Horn more precious than Burns or Brown?

 Yupperz. Between classroom work, film study, practices, joint practices, working with other DBs, there's lots of work JC can put in without having to play much in preseason.
