SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- There are several position battles taking place within this year's Panthers camp.

"I like competition. They're making some plays out there, they're doing a great job. But you know me, when they make a play, I know I have to go out and make a play. I have to turn it up another notch," he said. "If you're not a competitor, you should not be playing this game."
The Panthers host the Texans Saturday night in their preseason opener.
