I really hate that team so I'll shed zero tears, but that kid was one of the few Panthers I kinda liked.

I hope he makes a full recovery.... and then eventually signs elsewhere.

What I find encouraging for us is that Brandon Coleman's upside was often compared to Kelvin Benjamin.

And from several press conferences and beat writer comments, Coleman is now our #2 outside WR. He's running almost exclusively with the 1st string now.

I will never feel sorry for anything Cam Newton is involved in.

He is a young man with a bright/solid future ahead of him, hope he recovers from this. Wouldn't wish this on anyone, bad deal.

Hate the team but don't wish many people an injury.

NOW if it was Cam - I would be cheering up a storm. Don't like him, his attitude nothing about him!

Is it odd that his ACL tore simply while running? That would concern me.

It happened right when he was planting and no, its not that odd.
Todays athletes are bigger, faster and stronger than ever before. They move faster at a higher weight than what they used to 30 years ago. Thsi creates quite a big force on joints and tendons and they might snap just like what happened here.

Hate it for him, love it for having to cover him and eliminating one of Newton's big targets.

We had a promising RB tear his ACL untouched during a walk-thru several years ago.

Can't remember his name but he was a big and fast UDFA I think. Kinda reminded me of Natrone Means.

If it were one of our guys I bet Panther fans wouldn't be shedding any tears.

Lynell Hamilton by any chance?

Played really well late in 2009 superbowl run and in preseason, then tore his ACL and was never heard from again.

Hate the team, but dont wish injury on people, even Cam Newton.

I'd like to see one of our LB's blindside him into next year, but I dont wish
injury.

I actually think this guy is overhyped; he was invisible against us last year.
That said, he is a big target for them, and losing him brings their win total down 1-2 games easily.
Ginn or Cotchery as a starter? Great news for us.
