CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers left tackle Jordan Gross broke his right ankle during a 28-19 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
Gross was blocking midway through the second quarter when a Falcons player fell into his leg, which bent awkwardly. The medical staff put a brace on Gross' leg and ankle before he was carted to the locker room.
Travelle Wharton moved from left guard to Gross' spot, and Mackenzy Bernadeau replaced Wharton.
