The Carolina Panthers wrapped up training camp on Monday and will return to practice in Charlotte on Tuesday. Here's some news from the final practice.

   1. Dan Morgan said he will play about one quarter on Friday night against the New England Patriots. Morgan said he's eager to get in some live action. He said he's not sure if the coaches want him to play in the preseason finale against Pittsburgh. Morgan has done more in team drills of late and done some hitting. He said he's not worried about getting hurt.

   2. The vets tied up the team's three rookie linebackers to a goal post with athletic tape following Monday's practice and doused them with Gatorade and water.

   3. Julius Peppers did not practice and remains day-to-day with an illness, coach John Fox.

   4. Dwayne Jarrett made two nice grabs in practice. Perhaps he's ready to step up and compete for the starting job.

   5. Deke Cooper continues to work with the first team at free safety ahead of Nate Salley.

   6. Coach John Fox said the team's No. 2 receiver spot is still up in the air. (More on that later).

   7. When the Panthers go to their nickel package, rookie linebacker Jon Beason comes out and Richard Marshall enters the game.

   That's all from Spartanburg.... Check back later for more on the No. 2 receiver battle and more from Morgan on getting a chance to play.
