Panthers face hard choices as camp battles loom
Carolina evaluators weigh backs like Scarlett to back McCaffrey and a hidden receiver role for Godwin with Godwin possibly becoming the sixth wideout. Scarlett’s size and hand improvement boost he’s a roster contender while Elliott battles Elder for nickel corner and Obada fits hybrid schemes but may fit better elsewhere. Kicker drama swirls as Slye shines 6-for-6 while Gano battles a big injury and roster spots hang in the balance.
