Carolina Panthers: Key players to watch against the Atlanta Falcons
Corey Robinson/Chris Clark
The one position that is a little trickier to find a replacement is at right tackle, this is due to the fact that neither option has had much time with team.
Entering the regular season, the Panthers thought they were going to get some good news with the return of Daryl Williams. Last year’s starter suffered a knee injury at the beginning of training camp but was able to recover in time for the game against the Cowboys.
However, Williams suffered another injury to that knee and was placed on injured reserve this week.
This means the team will be starting either Corey Robinson, who they traded for shortly before the regular season, or Chris Clark, who was signed as a free agent. It would seem to be that Robinson would have an edge just in terms of endurance as Clark was not with any NFL team during training camp or preseason.
This right side of the offensive line and their performance could be the deciding factor on the outcome.
