Carolina Panthers RB Mike Tolbert’s injury has been described as a hairline fracture in the knee. It will keep him out of the game vs the Baltimore Ravens, but it should not be a long-term injury for the running back.

With Tolbert out and with D’Angelo Williams questionable, the team still may need to find some depth for the roster in the upcoming games.
Jonathan Stewart’s status says that he has a ‘severely’ sprained knee. There still is no timetable listed for Stewart on when he will return.
There is no real timetable for either player, but we know that Tolbert will be able to play later in the year. Just don’t know when that will be. Stewart’s “severe” sprain sounds like it could keep him out for a minute.
What should the team do with the depth on the roster?
