Panthers' Sam Darnold: Out of walking boot
Darnold (ankle) ditched the walking boot on his left foot as of Thursday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Darnold suffered a high ankle sprain during the Panthers' preseason finale on Aug. 26 and received a recovery timetable of 4-to-6 weeks at the time of the injury. The team subsequently placed him on IR last Thursday, ruling him out for at least the first four games of the campaign. While Darnold continues his rehab, Baker Mayfield will direct Carolina's offense with P.J. Walker serving as the backup quarterback.

Panthers' Sam Darnold: Officially on IR
The Panthers placed Darnold (ankle) on injured reserve Thursday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Coach Matt Rhule said Darnold will miss "at least four weeks" while recovering from a left high-ankle sprain suffered in last Friday's preseason finale, so his placement on injured reserve was inevitable. The move opens up a roster spot for kicker Eddy Pineiro. Darnold will be eligible to return Week 5 versus the 49ers, at the earliest. For now, Carolina will roll with P.J. Walker as the backup to starter Baker Mayfield.
