Twitter fingers at ease, Carolina Panthers fans. There’s no need for panic-stricken speculation regarding your young defensive star just yet.
After wrapping up the second outing of rookie minicamp on Saturday afternoon, head coach Matt Rhule settled in for a far less awkward media session than the one he experienced a day before. In fact, the only question that even had the slightest potential to be awkward wasn’t even awkward at all.
When asked of defensive end Brian Burns’ current absence from the team facility, Rhule assured The Athletic’s Joseph Person that it was a non-issue and expects the 24-year-old to be present at mandatory minicamp starting June 14.
