Panthers WR Steve Smith suffered a broken arm in the third quarter against the Giants on Sunday, PFW has learned.

Smith caught a 27-yard TD pass from Matt Moore to give the Panthers a 31-0 lead. On the play, Smith took a big hit from Giants S Michael Johnson right on his left forearm but kept his balance and ran into the end zone.

Sources told PFW that Smith will need a plate and screws inserted to his arm but that it is not considered a major injury. He will have surgery Monday and likely will have to wear a cast for about 10 days, it is believed.

Smith sits 18 yards short of his fifth straight 1,000-yard season. His status is not known for Sunday's finale against the Saints, but one source told PFW that "if they will let him suit up, Steve will want to play."

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
