Jake Won't Start For Carolina. Weinke In


Chris Weinke #16 / Quarterback / Backup

Height: 6-4 Weight: 232
Born: Jul 31, 1972 - St. Paul, MN
College: Florida State
Draft: 2001 - 4th round (11th pick) by the Carolina Panthers
_________________________
Barring a significant recovery by Jake Delhomme, backup Chris Weinke is expected to start for Carolina on Sunday against the New York Giants.

Weinke took all the snaps in practice this week as Delhomme nursed an injured right thumb. Delhomme has also struggled this season, including an interception against Philadelphia on Monday night that ended the Panthers' hopes for a comeback win.

In anticipation of Delhomme not playing, the Panthers activated quarterback Brett Basanez from the practice squad. Basanez may open the game as the No. 2 quarterback
__________________________

Jake Delhomme suffered a really significant thumb injury against Philadelphia on Monday, so it looks as though Weinke is in. Carolina is holding it's collective breath, guys.
