Quick hits from Monday morning’s walk-thru for the Carolina Panthers:

•Panthers confirm that NT Ron Edwards will look to have surgery on his torn triceps. No timetable on a return, and no announcement of Edwards being placed on IR.

•Sione Fua, rookie DT from Stanford, has seen extensive action over the past week and had shown flashes. Don’t be surprised if head coach Ron Rivera utilizes Fua at the NT position in Edwards’ place.

•WR David Gettis, who has been out with a hamstring, could practice Monday night, according to team sources. Gettis lacks some physicality, but has the straight-line speed that fits this offensive scheme.

•DE Greg Hardy remains sidelined from injuries sustained in a July motorcycle accident. Team does not plan to rush him back.

•DE Eric Norwood has shown as much promise as any DE thus far. Entirely too early to tell, but he fits the Trent Cole style of pass rusher that defensive coordinator Sean McDermott utilized in Philadelphia

•WR Brandon LaFell still out with hamstring issues. Team says he could return by mid-week.

I really hope Beason is ready to get back into practice, cause these injuries are hitting us hard. Also Kalil needs to be back in as well.

Both Gettis and Lafell out with hammy injuries :rolleyes:

After a good season and don't capitalize by working extra hard to get even further. Its time for some good ol hardcore Smith advice

VERY questionable. Hey if they want Edwards and Clowney to take their spots on the depth chart it's fine with me. :skep:

[armistice]

Clowney? Why? Has he ever proved anything about him being good? D:

One of those 2 won't be on the final roster.

Please god no to Clowney taking anybodies spot

[jtnc]

At least Clowney is fighting for a starting job.

[HPPantherzfan]

What about Guy?

At least Clowney is fighting for a starting job.

Starting job?

You are legitimately smoking crack if you think Clowney is close to a starting spot with the panthers.

If you were a WR and you were on the Panthers, would you allow yourself to have hamstring injuries? I know they are common and hard to prevent, but its the difference between 3-4 years in the league vs 10+ in the league, all because of missing TC due to a muscle injury. :|

Omg gettis and lafell aren't practicing they're not super serial about winning! Who cares about injuries? You're supposed to play all the time! I know Inever take sick days!!!

Come on... really? So glad the fans aren't responsible for any decision making aside from how much of an ass they want to be at games :/

[ItsPantone278]

Naanee is probably the best option behind LaFell or Gettis. Lets hope Edwards is as good as he's shown this off-season and they obvious going to keep Pilares. Dudes like Clowney or Guy will be lucky to make the roster.

First, I never said they should practice through an injury. Second, I wasn't criticizing the coaching staff about any decision they need to make.

Learn to read, because all I said was that I don't see how you could let yourself get a hamstring injury at such a vital point in your career. Jesus
