One of the unsettled positions heading into the 2008 season for the Carolina Panthers is right guard. So look for the team will try several different combinations there over the next few months before settling on a starter. On Thursday, Toniu Fonoti got his chance to run with the ones, one day after Keydrick Vincent worked with the first team. Fonoti, you might remember, was a starter for the San Diego Chargers a few years back before letting his weight get out of control. He found himself out of the league last year after getting cut in training camp by the Atlanta Falcons. Now he's back and looks to be in a great shape.
I talked with Fonoti today about moving up to the first team. Check back later for more details.
In other news, rookie right tackle Jeff Otah continues to be held out of all drills while he works to get his ankle right.
