Injury Report for Friday

Stewart probable, Davis and Beason questionable vs. Falcons

Running back Jonathan Stewart will likely take the field for the first time since Sept. 16 when the Panthers play at Atlanta on Sunday.

Stewart is listed as probable on the Panthers' injury report Friday along with CB Chris Gamble, S/ST Colin Jones, T Byron Bell and DE Thomas Keiser.

Listed as questionable for the Panthers are three top defensive players. LB Thomas Davis participated fully in practice Friday after suffering a calf injury that kept him out of last Thursday's game versus the Giants.

DE Greg Hardy is questionable after he broke his thumb early in the Giants' game. Head coach Ron Rivera said Hardy's hand will likely be wrapped fully for the game.

Starting MLB Jon Beason has dealt with shoulder and knee injuries since before the Giants' game. He said Beason's soreness tomorrow after Friday's practice will play a big role in his status for Sunday.

"He looked good,"Rivera said of Beason at Friday's practice. "Mentally he was in it and that’s the best part. He stayed Monday, Wednesday, Thursday. He stayed in it so when he came out (to practice), the limited reps he took were spot-on so that’s a huge plus."

Listed as out is G Mike Pollak (shoulder) and doubtful is DE Antwan Applewhite (knee).

I'd be comfortable with a starting line up of Anderson, Keek, and TD and let Beason rest up this week and potentially next week as well, then it's the bye.

I have a man crush on Beast, but when he's playing with various injuries just a year removed from that serious Achilles injury, well I'd rather him get fully healed and we field a more capable LB unit.

I admire his heart, but his play against the vaGiants hurt himself and the team.

I'm also very concerned about Hardy and Applewhite potentially missing this game. Our pass rush is bad enough as it is, but without a decent rotation, our fatigued-looking DEs might get worn out even faster than normal...

Something tells me that McDermott has been given an ultimatium/serious a** chewing, and we'll see more press coverage and blitzing, much may help us or prove your point about us wearing down quicker.( Or I suppose it's me wanting a do or die/go for broke mindset).

Congrats...very intelligent, in depth analysis of you.

Was that a terrible attempt at sarcasm or did you actually think that quick little tidbit was an 'in depth analysis?

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
