Armanti andthe Carolina Panthers will be travelling to Baltimore to take on the defending Super Bowl champs.
Unfortunately, AE is out again according to this article:
http://www.panthers.com/news/article-2/ ... 921a68105.
"And with Hixon and Armanti Edwards (hamstring) unavailable, look for wide receiver David Gettis to get an extended opportunity to build on his five-catch, 82-yard performance a week ago in Philadelphia."
That's a bummer, but Rivera still loves him I'm sure.
*edit* woops meant to post this in the "Apps in the Pros" section.

Re: AE @ Ravens
I guess the saving grace is he had such a great pre-season and good 1st game therefore he can't do anything to "hurt" himself while not playing - with a couple of the other WRs ailing as well most likely keeps AE ahead of them --- I hate he's not playing but only want him to get that hamstring healed - if not, he will be bothered all year ---

Re: AE @ Ravens
He does look like a lock to make the final roster based on this...from panthers.com...
RECEIVERS RISING: Fourth-year wide receiver Armanti Edwards was the first name out of Rivera's mouth when asked who surprised him in training camp.
"Armanti has really surprised us," Rivera said.
Before a hamstring injury kept him from practicing in the final days of camp, Edwards consistently made plays.
The fluidity of his routes was noticeable. So was the increased confidence.
And fellow-wideout Brandon LaFell was well aware.
"Armanti has been pushing me the most," LaFell said. "Every time I go out there and make a play, he'll come back and make a play and everybody will forget about what I did.
"The way he's made strides over these four years – it's great to see him come into his own."
The same could be said for LaFell, who had a productive camp and continues to improve as the No. 2 receiver behind Steve Smith.

Re: AE @ Ravens
Ginn making a move with a punt return for TD on the first punt he returns as a Panther. Plus he caught a ball. AE needs to get healthy and get back.

Re: AE @ Ravens
that was going to be Ginn's job no matter what AE does or did do - personally, I'm glad it's Ginn and not one of the others in the mix - Ginn was going to be on the 53 anyway ---BUTCH1991 wrote:Ginn making a move with a punt return for TD on the first punt he returns as a Panther.

Re: AE @ Ravens
AE is n the team and will have a great shot at #3 WR. Ginn has always been a great return man, but he has terrible hands for a WR. AE was the leading candidate for the #3 spot before he got hurt, and nobody has done anything to change that since his injury. If he gets back to 100% soon then he will be #3.
