Stewart was held out of practice Tuesday for the second straight day in order to rest, Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Panthers have made a habit of giving Stewart ample rest in between games, so it should not come as a surprise that he is being held out of practice, particularly with the team playing Thursday this week. The Panthers could give Stewart another day of rest Wednesday given the short week, but given the pattern from recent weeks, consider him on track to take the field for this week's matchup with the Saints.
