Carolina Panthers RB Fozzy Whittaker (ankle) tweaked his sprained ankle in the NFC Championship game, but he is expected to be fine for Super Bowl 50, according to head coach Ron Rivera.
Footballguys View: Whittaker shouldn’t get much work in Super Bowl 50 against the Broncos. We’re not counting on him to do much in the game. First, the Broncos defense is tremendous at stopping the run. Second, Whittaker is serving as a backup behind Jonathan Stewart. It could be a long day for the Panthers if they force things on the ground against the Broncos.
