Jaguars DE Kampman not ready to play vs. Panthers

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jaguars will be without defensive end Aaron Kampman for at least another week.

Kampman is making progress in his return from knee surgery, but he's still not ready to play and will miss Sunday's game at Carolina. It will be the 17th game in which he has been sidelined during the last three seasons.

Kampman said "we're making good ground, we're definitely climbing" on his rehabilitation. Kampman tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee last November and missed the final eight games. The team has been cautious with his return, especially since he sustained the same injury to his left knee in 2009.

Kampman no longer is wearing a full leg brace, but he still doesn't have a timetable for his return.

The Jaguars have three sacks, two from Kampman's replacement, Matt Roth.
