Analysis:

It was speculated that Vernon's absence was because he got into a fight in practice Thursday versus the Panthers offensive line despite explicit instructions from coach Joe Philbin not to. Apparently that is not the case however as Philbin stated Thursday that the team was just being cautious in regards to a medical situation regarding Vernon.
