Breaking News: Panthers will place both starting DTs Terrell McClain and Sione Fua on injured reserve. huff.to/ulKIuC

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A person familiar with the situation says the Carolina Panthers are placing both starting rookie defensive tackles – Terrell McClain and Sione Fua – on injured reserve.

The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because moves have not been announced.

Fua and McClain were both third-round draft picks this year and have been starters since week one. However, Fua suffered a significant right hamstring strain prior to Sunday's game against Tampa Bay and didn't play. McClain sprained his left knee during the first half and did not return.

It's unclear at this point if either player will need surgery.

The Panthers (4-8) host Atlanta (7-5) on Sunday.

We should be okay. Whoever filled in for him in the second half did a fine job... May have worked to our benefit actually. The first time all year the opposing RB didn't run wild on us in the second half!

yep. Giving them reps was a long term thing......replacing them w/ anyone will make us better NOW.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
