Shortly after the injury, Ekonwu was ruled out for the remainder of the game.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nEkwonu, a graduate of NC State, was selected by the Panthers with the sixth overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.<\/span><\/p>\nIn December, Ekwonu underwent an MRI after feeling discomfort in his knee during a game against the New Orleans Saints.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nEkwonu told reporters he knew something was wrong \u201cbefore halftime.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cI kind of knew something was up, I guess, like more like when it happened, but I mean, I guess the adrenaline definitely helped me kind of fight through those things,\u201d he said at the time. \u201cI got a job to do, and obviously, the decision to stay in the game was my decision overall, so I felt like I could go at that time.

In the postgame evaluation and as you start doing tests on him, there\u2019s something in there, there\u2019s something going on with his knee, and so we had to make sure that we took care of him today.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
