Panthers' Luke Kuechly does not practice Monday

Carolina Panthers middle linebacker Luke Kuechly (concussion) did not practice Monday.

What It Means:

It is not a surprise after Kuechly suffered a concussion Thursday night. The star linebacker missed three games with a head injury last season, and he could travel to see a specialist this week. He is at best questionable to face the Oakland Raiders.

While not quite as impressive as last season, the Panthers defense has been playing well this year, and entered Thursday night ranked 10th in Adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points per play.
