Carolina Panthers offensive tackle Taylor Moton has been diagnosed with blood clots in his lungs and will miss time as he is placed on the reserve/NFI list. Moton is expected to miss the early part of the season. Cornerback Jaycee Horn joins him on the NFI list due to a foot injury that required stitches, although he is anticipated to return for the start of the season.
