The Carolina Panthers ' preseason opener , which resulted in a 17-3 loss to the New England Patriots on Thursday night, also resulted in a few injuries.
Head coach Dave Canales provided some updates on the setbacks this afternoon, following the team's first practice since the exhibition outing. He started with second-year offensive lineman Cade Mays .
"Cade had a shoulder—an AC sprain," Canales said. "So that'll be a couple of weeks for us to get him back out there."
Mays played 28 offensive snaps in the contest, one where the Panthers were already low on frontline depth. He recorded 25 of those snaps at center and three at right guard.
Canales then addressed the status of rookie defensive lineman Jaden Crumedy.
"And then Crumedy—that was a high-ankle sprain," he added. "I'm not sure the exact timetable there. I'll be able to get you more information on that."
Crumedy was selected in the sixth round of the 2024 draft.
Prior to the start of today's session, the Panthers signed defensive lineman Jayden Peevy , who spent much of the 2023 season on the team's practice squad.
