Just walked off the practice field here in Spartanburg, S.C., for the second-to-last practice of training camp. Coach John Fox said Monday morning’s 9:10 a.m. practice is the last one at Wofford College before the team packs up and returns to Charlotte. Fox had planned to break camp on Sunday, but the Panthers played so poorly Friday night that he kept them here an extra two days.

Some observations:

1. As expected, the Panthers tweaked their offensive line once again Sunday with Geoff Hangartner starting at right guard and Justin Hartwig moving back to center. The Ryan Kalil experiment didn’t work all that well against Philadelphia. The kid will be a good player in this league at some point, but he didn’t demonstrate he was ready for a starting role just yet.
2. Still no Julius Peppers. He is in Charlotte resting while recovering from an illness. Coach John Fox said it’s nothing serious and fans shouldn’t ready anything into it. They just want Peppers to rest and get better. That's probably a good idea.
3. Stanley McClover worked with the starters in place of Peppers again Sunday.
4. Linebackers Na’il Diggs and Brandon Jamison sat out Sunday’s practice. Nothing serious, just dinged from the game. (That, by the way, may have been the only thing good to come out of the game -- nobody was seriously hurt).
5. Diggs’ injury meant Jon Beason was back to working with the first team at weakside linebacker, where he’s expected to stay.
6. Defensive end Dave Ball made a nice play in practice, predicting the passing route of David Carr and stepping in front of a pass to Steve Smith and taking it for a touchdown.
7. This was mildly interesting, but the Panthers went back to using Jeremy Bridges at right tackle and Evan Mathis at right guard in the second-team offense. Bridges is expected to be the Week 3 starter at right guard when he returns from a suspension.
8. Wide receiver Josh Davis from York underwent an appendectomy and will be out for some time. He wasn’t expected to make the 53-man roster, but could end up on the practice squad.
9. Dwayne Jarrett made a nice move on cornerback Richard Marshall and beat him for a touchdown during 1-on-1 drills.
10. Nate Salley split some first-team reps with Deke Cooper at free safety. Salley returned to the practice field last week following a knee injury.
