Rodney Smith could see more carries with the Carolina Panthers in Week 11.
Not having Christian McCaffrey has really hurt the Carolina Panthers this season. The running back has missed all-but 2.5 games in 2020 and his latest injury problem might mean he’s done for the campaign.
According to multiple reports, McCaffrey is set for a multi-week absence after suffering a shoulder injury during his first game back for the Carolina Panthers in Week 10 at the Kansas City Chiefs. Although it might be difficult, the best thing for the organization to do right now is to sit the All-Pro for the remainder of the season and give him a substantial period of rest before the 2021 campaign.
