The facts are still coming in as to exactly how Panthers receiver Steve Smith fractured his left arm yesterday. Either way, we’ve learned today that he’ll be shelved until late August.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, doctors have informed Smith that he will be out for 10 weeks, forcing him to miss all of training camp.
There remains a slim chance that Smith will be able to participate in the team’s last preseason game, which takes place on September 2, but that’s far from a certainty. The good news is he should be a full-go for the season opener against the Giants, barring any setbacks.
