Jon Beason Expected To Play

MLB Jon Beason has started 48 consecutive games for the Carolina Panthers and Rivera looks for him to continue that streak Sunday at Arizona.

“I expect him to play,” Rivera said of the three-time Pro Bowl selection. “We limited his reps but he did work with the first team… He made it through and looked good in doing so.”

Beason, who missed all of the preseason with a foot injury, said prior to practice he felt “pretty good.”

“It’s going to be a process and everything is geared toward Sunday,” Beason said. “We’ll see what happens. I’m going to try my best.”

Beason practiced on a limited basis on Wednesday, along with RG Mackenzy Bernadeau. WR Kealoha Pilares (ankle) and CB Josh Thomas (hamstring) did not practice.
