NFL Upholds One-Game Suspension of Panthers Safety Tre'von Moehrig

The decision sidelines him for the Rams game, costing him roughly $65,000.

Overview

  • The league denied Moehrig’s appeal stemming from a Week 12 low blow on 49ers receiver Jauan Jennings.
  • He will miss Carolina’s Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams and be eligible to return in Week 14.
  • The Panthers are 6-6 and second in the NFC South, heightening the impact on their divisional push.
  • Before the suspension, he logged 81 tackles, one sack and one interception through 12 games and earned Week 9 NFC Defensive Player of the Week.
  • His absence subtracts a foundational piece from a defense that has been a team strength alongside a top-four rushing attack.
