The thin and rather flimsy Carolina Panthers secondary lost safety Xavier Woods to a hamstring injury in the first half against the Seattle Seahawks. 

Woods, after making a play on the ball, limped to the sideline and walked off the field with trainers. 

Initially, his injury was unknown, but it has been reported as a hamstring injury and he is currently questionable to return to action against the Seahawks. 

With cornerback CJ Henderson also injured, the Panthers secondary is running out of bodies. 

Currently, special-teamer Sam Franklin replaced Woods and he has looked serviceable.

However, the Panthers can't take another blow to the secondary that doesn't just have a few holes. It looks like a sinking ship taking on large amounts of water.
