After Kelvin Benjamin went down with a torn ACL, the Panthers kept Stewart out of the game as a precaution. Jonathan is still slated as the primary running back with an offense dedicated to running the ball. The running back position is deep on this roster so keeping Stewart out of the lineup is a safe move. (Sports World Report)

Fantasy Impact:

Kelvin Benjamin going down to injury was a positive and a negative for Carolina. The box will be stacked more often without Kelvin to stretch the field but dedication to the run is even more important. The running back depth chart is deep but the coach reiterated Jonathan is the primary back.
