'All signs point to' Panthers WR Kelvin Benjamin playing Sunday



Panthers rookie wideout Kelvin Benjamin made the team flight to Green Bay for Sunday's game versus the Packers, and according to Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer, "all signs point to" him playing in that game.Benjamin suffered a concussion in Week 6 and is listed as questionable for this weekend. He was able to go through a full practice Friday and reportedly looked good.



However, it's not known if Benjamin received that all-important go-ahead from an independent neurologist. As of this morning, that had not been achieved, and that must happen for Benjamin to play. Person's tweet doesn't really give ultimate clarity on the matter, but it is at least another bit of positive news about Benjamin. If active, he'll be a fine WR2 in what should be a high-scoring game.
