Player Notes
November 15, 2007
David Carr was medically cleared to resume playing after missing two games with a concussion, according to the Charlotte Observer. However, head coach John Fox has declined to name a starting quarterback.
November 12, 2007
David Carr admitted Sunday that he actually is recovering from two concussions, not just one, sustained in the past five weeks. That's why he was held out of Week 10's game, according to the Charlotte Observer. "I took a knee to the head in that New Orleans game after a scramble near the goal line in the first quarter, and that turned out to be a concussion as well," Carr said. "So the concussion against Tennessee was my second this season. That's why the doctors were so careful with me this week, because if I get a third one this season, I'll probably be out for a longer amount of time." Carr said doctors told him he has a good chance of suiting up for Week 11, but that will depend on how he feels during the week.
November 5, 2007
Quarterback David Carr suffered a concussion late in Sunday’s game against the Titans, and is now questionable for this week’s game against the Falcons. If Carr can’t go, and Vinny Testaverde hasn’t recovered from his Achilles’ tendon injury, Matt Moore would start on Sunday.
November 4, 2007
David Carr left Sunday's contest against Tampa Bay with an undisclosed injury. He left with three minutes left to play in the game. The severity of the injury is unclear at this time.

October 24, 2007
David Carr, who's been dealing with a back injury, was able to practice without limitation Wednesday. "He looked good today," coach John Fox said of Carr in the AP. "He was able to take snaps, take reps, throw the ball." It looks like Carr will play this weekend, but he may not start. Fox has hinted that Carr may be in some sort of platoon with Vinny Testaverde.
October 14, 2007

October 13, 2007
The Panthers downgraded quarterback David Carr to questionable on Saturday because of his back injury, according to the Charlotte Observer. He returned to practice on Friday after missing two days and was originally listed as probable. Carr will be a game-time decision on Sunday. Vinny Testaverde is expected to be the starter if Carr can’t go, but the team may chose to go with undrafted rookie Matt Moore, as well.
October 12, 2007
Panthers quarterback David Carr is probable for this week’s game with the Cardinals. He returned to practice for a full session Friday after missing the previous two days with back problems. It appears the world has been saved from having to endure Vinny Testaverde as the Panthers’ starting quarterback. However, Carr’s back injury makes him a very risky fantasy play because he could be forced out of the game after any hit.
October 12, 2007
David Carr is still expected to play on Sunday against the Cardinals despite missing practice all week with a back injury, according to the Charlotte Observer. He suffered the injury during Sunday’s win over the Saints.

Panthers quarterback David Carr missed his second straight practice Thursday because of a sore back, according to the Associated Press. Coach John Fox was unsure if Carr could practice on Friday. "I was hopeful he would today, but he did not,'' he said. "We'll see what happens." Fox didn’t say if it would be undrafted rookie Matt Moore and the geriatric Vinny Testaverde under center Sunday if Carr can’t go, but fantasy owners want nothing to do with either of them. Sadly, losing Carr would be a big blow to the value of Steve Smith.
October 11, 2007
Panthers quarterback David Carr didn’t practice Wednesday and may not throw again on Thursday because of his injured back, according the Charlotte Observer. He is expected to give it a go this Sunday against the Cardinals, but his back problems make him a very risky start for fantasy owners.
October 7, 2007
David Carr was forced out of Sunday's game with a back injury but returned to lead the Panthers to a come-from-behind win over the Saints on Sunday. "It was by far the worst pain I've ever felt in my life," Carr said, according to the AP. "I felt like I got sat on and then twisted. Every bone in my back popped all the way up to my neck. ... I didn't know, honestly, if I'd ever play again." Despite his best efforts for the Panthers, Carr was useless in fantasy terms, as he finished with 119 yards, the score and interception. Time will tell if either Carr or Jake Delhomme will be ready for the Panthers' next contest.

When asked if he would be willing to take a salary-cap hit by releasing Carr if a suitable replacement could be found, McNair said: "We've been willing to do whatever we need to do to win. Really, that hasn't changed." The Chronicle speculates that Jake Plummer may be a possible offseason target.
