Jaguars may be coasting to Week 1 win after major Ikem Ekwonu update

The Jacksonville Jaguars could hold out a handful of players in Week 1 but are otherwise in good shape. Meanwhile, the Carolina Panthers are trending toward being without their starting left tackle.

The Panthers just posted their final injury report for the season opener and slapped the questionable designation on left tackle Ikem Ekwonu. This doesn't come as a surprise when you take into account that he's recovering from an appendectomy.

Having said that, Ekwonu isn't the only Carolina offensive lineman who will likely miss the game. Guards Damien Lewis and Robert Hunt, along with defensive end A'Shawn Robinson, were listed as questionable, meaning that the Panthers could be without as many as three hog mollis for the Week 1 matchup.
