Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart ruled out for Week 15

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart has been ruled out for Week 15. Head coach Ron Rivera says Stewart will sit out and they are going to be cautious with him. "He's not going to play this week. We are going to be very cautious with this," Rivera said. "The MRI came back negative, but there was some swelling. We're going to be smart."

This is bad news for Stewart owners. And it's not even like there is a sure-fire backup you can just scoop up off the wire. From the sound of Rivera's comments, don't be shocked if he sits out next week as well.
