Today was supposed to be the third scrimmage of the Panthers’ 2020 training camp schedule. Coach Matt Rhule told reporters that it would essentially be the third preseason game for many of the players currently on the roster.
Instead, practice was delayed and then eventually called off.
Practice has been canceled today. Will pass along more updates when they become available.

While no official explanation has been given, it’s reasonable to think this could be related to protesting the police-shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha earlier this week. Teams across the major sports leagues have canceled games and practices in recent days in order to draw attention to the cause.
