| Panthers DE Julius Peppers Played With A Broken Hand | | |
Panthers head coach John Fox has stubbornly refused to admit it, but linebacker Jon Beason let it slip to reporters after the game that Julius Peppers played Sunday with a broken right hand. “It’s tough,” Beason said. “Anytime you get a broken bone it’s hard. He was still getting pressure on the quarterback with basically one arm, it was unbelievable. The young guy Everett Brown stepped in and played well, Charles Johnson played well, and that’s what we need. Thomas [Davis] went down and James Anderson played some, Landon Johnson played some, and they both did a good job of making plays.” Peppers suffered the injury last week against New Orleans, but Fox has continued to classify it as a “messed up hand.” Peppers didn’t record a tackle, but had two quarterback hurries late in the game.
