Rookies ready for bigger roles

CHARLOTTE – The disappointment of losing in the Super Bowl doesn't easily dissipate, but even after the loss, the accomplishments of the season aren't lost on the members of the Panthers' potential-packed rookie class.

"We had a good season coming in – lost just two games – but didn't win the Super Bowl," wide receiver Devin Funchess said. "We'll fight to get back there next year."

The Panthers reached the Super Bowl with a rookie class that flashed potential up and down its ranks but that for the most part wasn't asked to do too much.
