Long list this week!
Carolina Panthers
Steve Smith, WR
Smith returned to practice on Sunday, after recovering from a foot infection that kept him out for two weeks.

Rivera expects Smith to be back for Week 1 against Tampa Bay.
Carolina Panthers

Cincinnati Bengals
BenJarvus Green-Ellis, RB
Green-Ellis is ready for Week 1's game against the Raven, expected to carry most of the carries. Whatever the coaches have in mind for him though, Green-Ellis is ready.

New Orleans Saints
Curtis Lofton, LB
Lofton is dealing with a high ankle sprain, and is still limited in practice. He may miss the season opener against the Redskins.
