The Latest on the third Sunday of the NFL regular season:

2:30 p.m.
The Panthers have ruled out wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin for the rest of the game. Benjamin’s knee was bent backward after making a catch at the end of the first quarter and he did not return.
The Panthers all already without tight end Greg Olsen, who is out at least eight weeks a broken foot so it’s no surprise their offense is struggling against the Saints 32nd-ranked defense.

Frank Gore celebrated his 3,000th carry with a 4-yard TD run to give the Indianapolis Colts a 28-7 lead over the Cleveland Browns. Gore is the ninth player in league history to join the 3,000-carry club.
