As usual, the injury report came out on Friday for the Carolina Panthers. Perhaps a bit unusual was the fact that there was only one player on it. Wide receiver Torrey Smith was the lone party making this his fourth consecutive week that he will miss game action.
Per an official release from Panthers.com head coach Ron Rivera has stated that Smith is progressing, but is still a little bit away from game action. There is even some talk that he could return next week when the Panthers face a tough battle against the Seattle Seahawks.
