Panthers' Messiah Swinson: Won't suit up Sunday

Swinson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game at New Orleans, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Swinson was just signed off the Packers' practice squad less than a week ago, so it's not surprising that he won't be playing in Week 1 for Carolina. Rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders figures to lead the Panthers in snaps at tight end Sunday with Tommy Tremble (hamstring/back) also out.
