Dillon will be a healthy scratch for the second straight week as the Panthers go with Chuba Hubbard, Trevor Etienne and Anthony Tyus as their three options in the backfield. Dillon appears to have found himself far down the pecking order, and he is unlikely to be a major part of Carolina's future plans.
