My guess is Garrett is still looking for his dominant lead blocker.

I do worry that his concussion symptoms are still persisting almost a month later. FB isn't a great position for someone with a concussion given the nature of regular high-impact collisions.
I think someone posted that it may have more to do with his neck now and not the concussion, but he was projected by the panthers to be ready by gm 1(before he was cut).

The Panthers were without 16 players due to injury Friday night against the Miami Dolphins, including wide receiver Steve Smith (finger) and running backs Jonathan Stewart and Mike Goodson, both of whom sat out with sore Achilles. Among the others sitting out on offense were fullback Tony Fiammetta (neck), guard Geoff Schwartz (hip), right tackle Jeff Otah (knee) and tight end Gary Barnidge (ankle).

On why fullback Tony Fiammetta did not practice: Tony had a neck stinger in the game, and it flared up on him today, so we pulled him out from practice
