Panthers’ McCaffrey returns to practice after missing 2 days

Seattle Sports

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey returned to practice on Friday after missing the last two days with a quad injury.

McCaffrey ran, cut and caught passes during the 20 minutes of practice that were open to the media inside the team’s bubble.

The Panthers (1-2) haven’t handed out an injury designation yet for McCaffrey for Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals (1-2). Coach Matt Rhule is expected to address the media later in the day and give an update on McCaffrey’s status.

McCaffrey enters the week tied for fifth in the NFL in the league in rushing and is coming off back-to-back 100-yard rushing games against the New York Giants and New Orleans Saints.
