While los Patriots came out with the resounding victory for score 24-6 by Charlotte, the Panthers were upset by the actions of Mac Jones, who they accused of being a dirty player.
In the first quarter of the game in Carolina, Brian Burns forced the fumble of the rookie passer and after losing the ball Jones took the defensive end by the leg and knocked him down in an unorthodox way, causing annoyance to the Panthers – who had a voice through Haason Reddick and coach Matt Rhule.
About, Alabama’s product claimed it had no intention of injuring the defender (Burns dropped the engagement for a few plays) and added that his contact was a product of fumble generated confusion.
“After I got hit hard, I didn’t know what was going on. I thought Burns had the ball. It was my job to try to make the tackle,” Jones explained. “He wasn’t trying to hurt someone or something like that.”
Compared to Reddick and Rhule, Burns downplayed the altercation. “I’ll be fine,” the DE would have indicated. according to Reddick himself.
Darnold, between cottons
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Sam Darnold suffered a man injury during the engagement against New England and their condition will be considered day by day. In the event that the USC alumnus is not available for Week 10, the Panthers only have PJ Walker on the roster – he has one start, 401 yards, one touchdown and five interceptions in the NFL.
