Really glad to hear that. I'd be extra cautious and hold him out until he is absolutely undoubtedly 100%. If that means he doesn't even play again this year, so be it. He is one of the very few players on this team that looks like a potential future core piece. Let's not jeopardize that for no reason in a lost season.

I agree. I was expecting him to be out this week regardless.

We're seen enough of JT. Shut him down for the season.

We know he's a stud. We know he's a core building block of our offense. We know receiving TE isn't a pressing need in the draft. And we know we're not in the running for the playoffs. What else do we really need to know?

There's nothing to be gained by sending him back out this season.

[Wolfcop]

Let him play when he is 100% healthy. Still room to learn and improve.

Update on Panthers TE Ja'Tavion Sanders. Coach Dave Canales said the rookie avoided a serious injury to the neck. Sanders is in the stadium today

 

For the life of me I can't get these to imbed. 

 

 

The embed feature hasn't been working since a few days before the election. Musk had his worker bees "fix" things. I'm not sure if Zod can upgrade the board to allow it to work again.

I really doubt he needs to be shut down. Just make sure he is being honest about how it feels.

I mean, I don't think it's a serious injury and he isn't going to be very receptive to sitting either. If he is healthy and ready to go, let him play. If that is a week from now, 3 weeks from now or whenever.

I'm just glad he's alright. Anything that looks neck related and has you leaving on a backboard is scary.

I mean, he'll continue to grow and develop as a player.

There's no reason to sit perfectly healthy players. If he's in good shape, we might as well play him. If his injury is such that he is more likely to have a re-injury, perhaps you limit his play time, but football is a physical game and we need to develop our young players too.

Good deal that could’ve been way worse. Kid is gonna be a beast.

[raleigh-panther]

Prayers for the young man’s continued improvement 

watched football a lot of years…i  never saw  anyone land directly on the top of the head,  with all that force, like that   Never

he is very lucky

was thinking the same thing, JT is far from finished developing, he needs more development.  If it were year 3 maybe, if it were a vet, sure, but a rookie in first season, nah he needs more reps cuzz dang this class could be special.

I tend to agree with this.  No rush to get him back out there this season and risk it.

[CamWhoaaCam]

Now we know @Panthering is not a doctor. He told us it was for sure a fractured neck smh

 

Good for Sanders for avoiding a major injury.

[Butterflyj30]

I'm soo happy that he's okay
