FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) — Atlanta Falcons punter Matt Bosher is done for the season after re-injuring his right groin. Bosher was activated from injured reserve on Monday and expected to play for the first time since Week 4 when the 3-9 Falcons host the 5-7 Carolina Panthers. But the team announced today that Bosher was headed back to IR and Ryan Allen had been re-signed to handle the punting duties. Bosher punted in just three games this season because of the injury. Allen has appeared in four games for the Falcons, averaging 39.4 yards while dropping six of 14 punts inside the 20-yard line.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Panthers have signed Shaq Thompson to a four-year extension, keeping the linebacker under contract through the 2023 season. Thompson began his career in Thomas Davis' shadows but has since emerged as a reliable starter. The five-year NFL veteran is averaging more than eight tackles a game. He has had double-digit tackle totals in four games this season, including a career-high 14 in Carolina’s Week 3 win at Arizona. Thompson was the team's first-round draft pick in 2015.
