About this episode

Taylor Moton's injury raises concerns for the Panthers' offensive line as they prepare for the season.

Carolina Panthers’ star right tackle Taylor Moton is sidelined with blood clots in his lung, starting camp on the non-football injury list — but doctors say he’s responding well to blood thinners. His absence leaves a gaping hole on the offensive line, especially with left tackle Ikem Ekwonu still recovering from a ruptured Achilles. Rookie Monroe Freeling, who’s been training at right tackle, is now poised to step into a critical starting role — despite limited reps at his new position. The Panthers’ offensive line strategy is in flux as they scramble to protect QB Bryce Young, possibly shifting veteran Rasheed Walker to left tackle. Moton’s recovery is the top priority, but his absence casts serious doubt on the team’s offensive outlook for the season.
