    From the journal:

    Injury update

    • The Panthers suffered two apparently minor injuries Saturday night when linebacker Brandon Short incurred a left foot sprain and wide receiver/special-teamer Karl Hankton incurred a shoulder sprain.

    After the game, however, Fox said that he expects at least three players who did not suit up Saturday - cornerback Ken Lucas (hamstring), safety Mike Minter (knee) and wide receiver Keary Colbert (hamstring) - to be cleared to return to the practice field today when the team returns to training camp at Wofford College in Spartanburg, S.C. Tight end Mike Seidman, who also sat out against the Redskins because of a bruised left knee, added that he expects to resume practicing today as well.


    Who's next on the depth chart at SLB?

    Wouldn't it be better to put Davis at the Will, Witherspoon at the Mike, and Morgan at the Sam?

    DIDN'T TAKE LONG:First-round pick Thomas Davis was taking all of his work with the linebackers Monday, a pretty good sign a move is in his future. Davis has also worked as a safety, but the Panthers feel like his eventual position will be linebacker.

    didn't know where to post this. here on in the Branch is rocking thread. Collin maybe losing ground in his argument ... perhaps on several levels.

    Agree with Brain, just keep everyone where they are used to and mess with just one spot. Throw Draft into the fire and see how he plays out. It might even make a man out of him.

    From the Observer:

    Panthers end experiment, move Davis to linebacker

    Staff reports

    The Carolina Panthers' experiment with Thomas Davis at strong safety has come to an end.

    Defensive coordinator Mike Trgovac said Monday Davis, the team's first-round draft pick out of Georgia, will move full time to strongside linebacker.

    The move was prompted by a foot injury to linebacker Brandon Short. The seriousness of Short's injury was not known, but Trgovac said the team needs to prepare for him to be out for an extended period.
