Has Stephen Weatherly played his last game for the Carolina Panthers?

The Carolina Panthers will be without the services of Stephen Weatherly for the remainder of the 2020 season after they placed him on the reserve/injured list. This is a big blow for the free-agent signing and one that has thrown his future with the franchise into doubt.

Big things were expected of Weatherly after he signed a deal with the Carolina Panthers this offseason. He performed well on a rotational basis behind Pro Bowl duo Danielle Hunter and Everson Griffen on the Minnesota Vikings, so few would deny that he wasn’t deserving of a shot to become a prominent starter.
