Panthers LB Kuechly returns to practice, status uncertain
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Panthers middle linebacker Luke Kuechly has returned to the practice field for the first time since suffering a frightening concussion in the team’s Nov. 17 win against the New Orleans Saints.
The 2013 NFL Defensive Player of the Year missed the last two games while in the league’s concussion protocol and his status for Sunday’s game against San Diego is still unclear.
The five-year NFL veteran was limited in drills during the portion of practice open to the media on Wednesday.
