Jonathan Stewart Officially Inactive Tonight, Remove From Fantasy Lineups
Jonathan Stewart is out for tonight’s game against the Giants. We break down the fantasy implications.


Fantasy Analysis: This means that it's officially time to remove Stewart from fantasy lineups and potentially upgrade DeAngelo Williams and Mike Tolbert, although Tolbert is not worth a start at this time. It could also mean a couple of more carries for Cam Newton with one less mouth to feed on runs.
