The Panthers place DT Tank Tyler on IR

The injuries just keep piling on. This latest one hurts the depth of the Carolina Panthers D-line yet again, but with Hollis Thomas and Damione Lewis entrenched as starters with one decent backup in Nick Hayden, it won't hurt our run defense as much as you think. It's a shame though, the Panthers had to give up a 5th rounder to pick up the Tank. Landri will replace him. Don't expect him to see the field much, he is heavily undersized at the position.
