The Carolina Panthers suspend WR Steve Smith for the first two games of the season
The Carolina Panthers have suspended #1 WR Steve Smith for the first two games of the season due to a fight he got in with Ken Lucas in practice. Smith broke the cornerbacks nose and injured him pretty seriously. The suspension is the result of the injury and the fact that this isn’t the first time that Smith has got in a fight with a teammate. Smith will not play September 7th at San Diego or September 14th at home against the Bears. Look for the Panthers to rely on Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams a lot in those games running the football. Also keep your eyes on D.J. Hackett who is a very underrated receiver.
Panthers should trade Smith asap , two times is bad news , bad mojo for the locker room , I don’t care how talented , he is a bad actor, among many bad actors in professional sports
I think you might be right about this one TB. Smith doesn’t appear to be much of a team player. That combined with his past injury history makes me think that the Panthers might be better off without him.
