http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5311067 Carolina Panthers wide receiver Steve Smith broke his arm while playing defensive back during a flag football game at his football camp this weekend, his agent Derrick Fox confirmed. NFC South blog ESPN.com's Pat Yasinskas writes about all things NFC South in his division blog. Smith underwent surgery for the injury Sunday night. Fox predicted that Smith should be ready for the Panthers' regular-season opener. "I'm not trying to play doctor, but I don't think he'll miss any games due to this injury," Fox said. "He did this while trying to play with and help the kids." Smith ran his annual youth football camp Thursday through Saturday and the Panthers concluded their offseason practice last week. Smith is not expected to be ready for the start of training camp in late July because of the injury but should be available later in the preseason. Smith broke the same arm last season, albeit in a different spot. Last season, the injury caused him to miss the Panthers' regular-season finale.
yea the report said he missed the last game of the season. he actually broke it against the giants which was the giants last home game.week 16 [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9T7iqxTH2yg[/YOUTUBE]
He's already destined to fall as the Panthers will be even more focused on running it with Moore (or Clausen) at QB. He already said he wanted to be a #2, but who else do they have now that Moose is gone? Dwayne Jarrett?
So, when Smith is out of sync with his new QB due to missing training camp and Carolina sucks in the season opener against the giants, we can hear Fatcessa go on and on about how the giants are unstoppable and clearly the best team in NY.
