Otah suffered a "mini-setback"

Panthers RT Jeff Otah declared a "mini-setback," in his recovery from knee surgery, admitting he didn't expect to play for a few weeks.

After being held out of practice again, Otah said he thought he'd be back on the practice field in "two or three weeks."

While it's not worst-case scenario for the Panthers, it's hardly what they were hoping for when he went in for an arthroscopic procedure on his left knee on Aug. 4. Then, they were hoping he'd be back by the opener, but now it could push into October.

Otah suffered a torn meniscus in his left knee last December, and said the current problem was an outgrowth of that situation.

He was rehabbing in hopes of playing this weekend when he said his "mini-setback" happened while running.

"I might have pushed myself a little too hard," Otah said.

In his place, the Panthers will start RT Geoff Schwartz, who has taken every snap there with the starters since training camp opened.

OMG WTF IS OUR TRAINING STAFF DOING. SAME THING HAPPENED TO TD

That could be problem. I was happy to hear about TD running 40s but it seemed kind of soon.

    • I want to throw in how much easier it is for a QB to develop and improve with a good oline.  Huge credit to the front office for spending the money on our two guards.  Cade Mays also had a 2nd really good game starting at center.  Love how he has developed and hope he's the real deal. Look at what Stroud is dealing with now in Houston after injuries and problems with their oline.  Strouds accuracy has been greatly affected as it seems like he doesn't trust his protection. Canales is doing a great job developing Bryce.  I think the QB whisperer might be for real. And obviously big props to Bryce.  First round pick that looks horrible in his first year.  Different coaches and systems.  Fans and media are calling him the biggest bust in NFL history and he looked like it in the first two games this year.  Gets benched.  Young man keep his cool and just continued to work and only worry about what he can control.  I hope things continue like this and we end up with a great success story. Bryce Young kept pounding.
    • Outside of Philly (who currently is #3 in pass defense) the rest of our remaining opponents are bottom 1/3 of the League in that regard.  Let's see what Bryce can do versus bad pass Ds.
