Panthers' Robert Hunt: Placed on injured reserve

The Panthers placed Hunt (biceps) on injured reserve Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

A stint on injured reserve requires a player to miss at least the next four games, but Hunt will likely be out longer due to a torn biceps that he suffered during Sunday's loss to the Cardinals. Chandler Zavala is expected to start at right guard for as long as Hunt is out of action.
