The Carolina Panthers have placed rookie running back Jordan Scarlett on injured reserve and called up offensive lineman Brad Lundblade from the practice squad, per Max Henson.
Scarlett was a head-scratching fifth-round pick for the Panthers in this year’s draft. With Christian McCaffrey getting so much playing time we doubted that Scarlett would see enough snaps to justify that pick. In the end, he only played 121 snaps, with just seven of them coming on offense.
Scarlett joins Cam Newton, Kawann Short, Dontari Poe, Greg Van Roten and several others on the IR list.
Lundblade (6-foot-3, 305 pounds) played his college football at Oklahoma State. He could see a lot of snaps this week considering the state of Carolina’s offensive line. To recap, Greg Little is listed as doubtful with an ankle injury, Van Roten is out and Taylor Moton is questionable.
Lundblade is the second offensive lineman they have called up from the practice squad this week. Garrett McGhin is the other.
