“As soon as he got hurt (last) preseason against the Patriots, they were saying, ‘Oh, he’s got a high ankle sprain.’  I looked at it on film carefully.  It’s not a high ankle sprain, you could tell that 10 minutes after the play.  You knew it’s a mid-foot sprain, Lisfranc, something like that.  But you wait ’til December for him to beg you to have surgery.  He shouldn’t have been out there Week 1 and 2.  He shouldn’t have been out there probably ’til Week 4 or 5, at minimum.”

It’s hard to argue with that.  Tolbert would know better than most how the Panthers run their organization.
