Panthers' put Brandon Zylstra (hamstring) on IR
The Carolina Panthers placed wide receiver Brandon Zylstra on injured reserve with a hamstring injury.
What It Means:
Zylstra suffered the injury in Week 6 but was able to return to the game. He played a season-high 36 offensive snaps (49%) and appeared to have replaced rookie Terrace Marshall (concussion) as the Panthers' primary slot man. Zylstra's absence for at least three games could afford Marshall some more opportunities whenever he clears protocol.
numberFire's models currently project Marshall for 3.3 targets in Week 7 against the New York Giants and he has a $4,800 salary on FanDuel. Zylstra ran 16 more routes than Marshall (29-13) in Week 6.
