VFL Chris Brazzell II Suffers Injury During Panthers Training Camp
The rookie wide receiver suffered a moderate ligament tear in a non-contact drill and could miss training camp, preseason and the start of the season.
- On Wednesday, Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Chris Brazzell II suffered a moderate lateral collateral ligament tear during a seven-on-seven session, potentially sidelining him for up to eight weeks.
- The Panthers selected Brazzell in the third round of the NFL Draft to compete for the No. 3 receiver role, challenging Xavier Legette behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker.
- "He felt weird on it, sat down," Panthers coach Dave Canales told reporters following the non-contact incident, as trainers carted the receiver off the field.
- Linebacker Nic Scourton suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament last week, while tight end Mitchell Evans sustained an ankle sprain and offensive tackle Taylor Moton remains sidelined.
- With Brazzell potentially missing the start of the regular season, Legette must assume a larger offensive role, recently making a notable play in practice.
