Beason shrugs off hamstring injury

The Carolina Panthers got two scares Monday morning, the second one coming minutes after defensive tackle Maake Kemoeatu was carted off the Wofford practice field with a torn Achilles tendon.

This time, it appeared Pro Bowl middle linebacker Jon Beason had injured his left hamstring when he limped off and watched the rest of practice with his upper leg wrapped.

But it was nothing serious, Beason said later.

“I just tweaked it,” said Beason, who added that he hadn't warmed up sufficiently before practice. “It was my fault.”
