The Panthers are getting healthier in the secondary, which will help fix their biggest problem at the moment.
But they’re still running short at one key position, which is pretty important in its own right.
According to Bill Voth of Black and Blue Review, Panthers left tackle Michael Oher is still out of practice because of a concussion.
Oher has been out since coming up with concussion symptoms after their Week Three loss to the Vikings, and hasn’t played since. The fact he’s now out a month is a much bigger concern for Oher himself.
But to take the football view, it’s bad news for Cam Newton, as right tackle Mike Remmers has been miscast on the left and Daryl Williams is filling in at right tackle in Oher’s absence. Against a Cardinals defense which was able to keep Russell Wilson off-balance last week, that could be a major issue.
