Panthers: Fozzy Whittaker candid about injury, recovery

It was certainly not the way Carolina running back Fozzy Whittaker wanted to begin the 2018 campaign. After being put on injured reserve n May with a torn ACL, Whittaker is out for the season, leaving the team with even less depth at running back.

In an interview with WFNZ-AM The Fan on Thursday, the former Texas Longhorn opened up about his injury. He described what he felt and the moment he knew something wasn’t right. Even still, he did not think he tore his ACL.

We were running hitch routes, and I heard a snap and a pop in my knee,” Whittaker told The Fan.
