Carolina Panthers wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin is full-go for the start of training camp.

Benjamin told reporters Thursday morning he's back to 100 percent after dealing with injuries to both his hamstrings this offseason.

The 2014 first-round pick also dismissed concerns about his weight gain, saying it's been a discussion point since his days at Florida State.

That's good news for the Panthers, as Benjamin is a crucial part of their offense. He led the team with 1,008 receiving yards and nine touchdowns last season.
