Carolina Panthers RG John Miller on COVID-19 list, out for Week 1

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers starting right guard John Miller went on the NFL's reserve/COVID-19 list Monday and has been ruled out for Sunday's opener against the New York Jets.

Dennis Daley, who started two games at right guard last season, will replace Miller as the starter Sunday. Rookie Deonte Brown, a sixth-round pick out of Alabama, is next up.

The Panthers, under NFL guidelines, cannot say whether a player tested positive for COVID-19. But an unvaccinated player who tests positive has to be out at least 10 days, and coach Matt Rhule said Miller will be out for 10 days.
