This is not the kind of news Carolina Panthers fans want to hear to start off training camp. Wednesday, veteran defensive end Julius Peppers and wide receiver Curtis Samuel failed their physicals per multiple media reports.
For Peppers, this probably is not that big a deal. As Jordan Rodrigue of the Charlotte Observer noted Peppers failed his physical because he needs to clean out his shoulder. This is due to repairs done to his labrum.
As I just tweeted, this is related to shoulder cleanout. Labrum repair. Don’t think it’s a cause for concern right now.
