FULLBACK

Starter: Mike Tolbert

One of few teams that still employ the traditional fullback, Carolina has one of the best in Mike Tolbert. The eight-year vet is a true asset for the Panthers offense as he is a ready and able contributor as a blocker, runner and pass catcher. Tolbert sees most of his action on third down and has been known to pick up the tough yardage by whatever means necessary. With 410 total yards and four scores last season, Tolbert can still produce and should be ready to do so again in 2016 for Carolina.
