Stewart’s Achilles tendon injury kept him from practicing most Wednesdays this season, and even with the injury problems he was the featured back at the end of the season, when DeAngleo Williams was out with an ankle injury of his own. Stewart was a large part of Carolina winning three of their last four.

Injuries have been no stranger to Jonathan Stewart, the 13th overall selection in the 2008 NFL Draft out of Oregon. He has overcome those injuries time and time again. He has displayed incredible toughness and determination to play through these injuries and produce on a consistently high level.

Stewart's injuries are certainly not a positive, but his ability to play through them is. Jonathan Stewart has set franchise records already and if he is 100 percent healthy, the sky seems to be the limit.

The 2010 season will be Stewart's third full season in the NFL and an injury-free season would seem to spell playoffs for the Carolina Panthers, who in 2010 will have the league’s 26th rated schedule in terms of difficulty.

An injury-free season would also seemingly mean Stewart will continue to break records and shred defenses. With Stewart and Williams anchoring the backfield and seemingly more stability at quarterback if Matt Moore continues to take snaps, the playoffs appear to be a well within reach.

here's to stewart being 100% in 2010...:cheers2:

Has he missed even a single game since he's been in the NFL?

nope.

he missed only 2 games in college.

i have to find the article, but i don't believe he missed time in high school either. questions of his durabiltiy came up because supposed he didn't always play full games in high school...

...something about rushing for 100-200 yards and mutiple TDs by halftime on a regular basis.

the article made his high school career sound like a greek mythology story.

...then again, he was ranked as one of the top high school RBs in the nation at the time.

don't you write for bleacherreport?

i almost got the job covering the panthers for cbs, but at the 11th hour a guy in indy lost his job and came in and shanghai'd it from me.

they gave me a check for 500 bucks as an apology and offered to make me a featured writer. I ain't working for free though.

of course the guy who got the atlanta job was a high school grad without a college degree so obviously i chose the wrong team.

      What's your confidence level in Canales?

      By flagfootballcoach28 · Posted

      Some of you who are not sold on Canales are insane. His main purpose was to turn around Bryce Young’s career and he did that. Of all of the teams in the top 10 of the NFL draft, we were the team that was consistently showing the most fight week in and week out. Our players never quit on the season. The offense which he is responsible for took a huge step forward compared to last year, despite the lack of skill talent  that we have. It was our defense that was a mess. That’s one of my critiques on Canales. He should’ve gotten rid of Evero and hired his own DC that shares the same vision. But as a whole, I can’t see how people are not pleased with what Canales did with this team. I’d give him an 9/10

      QB School: Bryce Young vs Falcons

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      One of the first thoughts after the game yesterday was that JT was going to jump all over it. He's been more favorable about BY from the beginning, and so yesterday must've felt like Christmas.

      Mock Draft from the 33rd Team

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Maybe, but they were always going to be an impossible team to accurately mocked right now. They have an absurd amount of cap room, what they need right now will not be what they need come draft day.  They can make multiple big splash signings and even make trades for players who need new contracts and their teams don't want to give it to them. OT and WR might be their two biggest needs right now, but it wouldn't be unreasonable to think they could go into the draft needing neither of them.  I think a LT will be their top FA priority, also think they're going to make a big offer to Higgins, and I could see them being a team in the running to trade for someone like DK Metcalf as they need a WR like him and they have the cap space to give him a big new contract.
