Monday's camp tweets

Lets not forget that the key to a pass rush is up the middle.  If you get the interior push to keep the QB from stepping up you have a better chance to get there.

Not to mention if they are force to double on the inside your ends get 1 on 1's and thats where you have to win.

ICYMI our DT's have not been playing or practicing, making it hell on the Ends.

Kelvin limited because of hit he took the other day. Will be fine.

[KB_fan]

He'd be inhuman if he weren't.... my back hurt just WATCHING that play...

 

David Newton ‏@DNewtonespn 39s39 seconds ago

#Panthers Ron Rivera says Kelvin Benjamin limited on purpose. Took a big shot to back Friday. Sore.

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReedAP 50s50 seconds ago

Charles Johnson left practice with soreness in calf. Did not reinjure it, just wasn't ready to come back.

Joe Person ‏@josephperson 7s8 seconds ago

Rivera said he was not sending a message to Frank Alexander. Just rewarding a couple of young guys who played well at the end of the game.

David Newton ‏@DNewtonespn 7s8 seconds ago

#Panthers Ron Rivera says will have 8 officials here for practices with Dolphins.

[KB_fan]

Hmmm.  long way to go:

David Newton ‏@DNewtonespn 30s30 seconds ago

#Panthers Ron Rivera says Shaq Thompson is around 350 to 400 reps. Ideally liked 5,000 before opener.

 

Jonathan Jones ‏@jjones9 29s29 seconds ago

Rivera always says rookies need 5,000 reps before things become second nature. He estimates Shaq Thompson is around 350-400 right now

I think KK may have been back right before they went to Bills but they didn't want to risk him?  I could be wrong.  And we were always told they'd re-evaluate Star in something like 2 - 3 weeks,  I thought?  So... no news is not *necessarily* bad in his case.

But obviously, our D-Line depth is a bit shallower than many of us had thought.

I thought someone said he would have played had it been a regular season game.

A few more tweets of interest have appeared. 

Re: Childers the TE that was released today.  Sad to hear he's hurt.  Wish him well.

Joe Person ‏@josephperson 3h3 hours ago

Ron Rivera: Former Coastal Carolina TE Jamie Childers broke his arm vs. Bills. Rivera says team has reached injury settlement w/ him.

JJones answers a reader's question about how teams choose an opposing team to practice against:

 

 panthers4Life [.com] ‏@reggiechrome

@jjones9 @NFL QUESTION: How do teams choose who they conduct their joint team practices with during training camp?

 

Jonathan Jones ‏@jjones9 2h2 hours ago

Depends if they like each other. Coaches feel comfortable. Usually don't play each other in reg season. & logistics
