lost a key component of their offense.
Right tackle Daryl Williams, who was named second team All-Pro last year and
was in line for a large contract extension, was carted off the field with a
right knee injury Saturday morning.
Via the team¡¯s official

Dotchin Jersey , coach Ron Rivera said Williams was going to be taken back
to Charlotte for more tests.
During practice, Williams was replaced by 2017 second-round pick Taylor

offseason, but they apparently never got that close to reaching a deal. That
makes the timing of the injury horrible, as he¡¯s entering the final year of his
rookie
deal.
