Placed on IR following surgery
Carolina placed Christensen (Achilles) on injured reserve Thursday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Christensen suffered a torn Achilles in this past Sunday's loss to Buffalo and underwent surgery Wednesday. Jake Curhan is currently atop the depth chart at right guard, though he could fade into a reserve once the Panthers get either Chandler Zavala (knee) or Robert Hunt (biceps) back from injured reserve.

Christensen started all 17 games at left guard last season. Despite breaking his ankle in Week 18, he's back healthy ahead of the upcoming campaign and figures to maintain his first-team role to protect rookie signal caller Bryce Young.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Shifting to guard
Christensen is expected to move inside to play guard in 2022, Joseph Person of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Christensen was asked to play at left tackle to end his rookie season in Carolina. However, now that the Panthers have Ikem Ekwonu in the fold, Christensen can kick inside to left guard, his more natural position. He'll have to compete for a starting role with Michael Jordan, but Christensen has enough versatility that he will likely play a significant role for the team in 2022, and he has also taken snaps at center during OTAs.
