"He worked today with the trainer and did some route running," head coach Ron Rivera said following Monday's practice. "We'll see how he is tomorrow morning. If he reacts nicely, we'll get him on the field." Funchess suffered a hamstring injury last Wednesday and sat out Saturday's preseason game against the Miami Dolphins. Funchess suffered the injury the same day the Panthers lost top receiver Kelvin Benjamin for the season to a knee injury.
ON THE MEND: The Panthers are understandably anxious to get back to preparing wide receiver Devin Funchess for his rookie season. The wait might soon be over.
