Jon Beason working as weakside linebacker

Panthers MLB Jon Beason was working as the weak-side linebacker in Thursday's practice.

Interesting. Beason was considered an ideal fit for the WILL spot when he entered the league, and coordinator Ron Meeks' scheme funnels the majority of plays to that position. With Thomas Davis likely out for the season, the move could last. Dan Connor entered the lineup at middle backer Thursday, with James Anderson on the strong-side.
