A first-timer in the "Top 100" is the first Panther to crack this year's list.
Running back Jonathan Stewart ranked as the NFL's 86th-best player in the "Top 100 Players of 2016" on NFL Network. Each Wednesday at 8 p.m. EDT, the show unveils 10 of the top 100 based on NFL players' votes.
Despite missing the final three games of the regular season to heal a foot injury, Stewart had the second-highest rushing total of his eight-year career with 989 yards on the ground. He was a catalyst for the league's highest scoring offense in his first season as the undisputed starter since the Panthers picked him 13th overall in the 2008 NFL Draft.
