(Sports Network) - The Washington Redskins will put their perfect preseason record on the line at Bank of America Stadium on Saturday night, when they visit the Carolina Panthers in the next-to-last tune-up for each team.

The beginning of the Jim Zorn era has yielded positive initial returns for the Redskins, who have downed the Colts (30-16), Bills (17-14) and Jets (13-10) during the warm-up period.

Rookie Colt Brennan helped the Skins spoil Brett Favre's Jets debut last week, as his 33-yard touchdown pass to Jason Goode in the fourth quarter lifted Washington to the win.

Brennan, a sixth-round Draft choice out of Hawaii who could see some time on Saturday, has had an eye-opening preseason. The signal-caller has completed 17-of-23 passes for 239 yards and three touchdowns without an interception, albeit while playing primarily against deep reserves.

Before Brennan gets his shot, the Redskins starters are expected to play a bulk of the first half in Carolina.

That group includes QB Jason Campbell, who has also had an encouraging preseason with a 95.4 passer rating on 16-of-25 passing for 160 yards and a touchdown.

Campbell could get a chance on Saturday to throw to rookie wideout Malcolm Kelly (Oklahoma), who has been slowed by a knee injury throughout the summer but could be available to play against the Panthers.

Elsewhere on the injury front, safety LaRon Landry (hamstring) has been ruled out of the contest.

For the Panthers, Saturday's tilt will offer a vital dress rehearsal for quarterback Jake Delhomme.

Delhomme, who is attempting to recover from Tommy John elbow surgery, is expected to play at least the first half against the Redskins, which will be his most extensive action until the team's regular season opener against San Diego on Sept. 7th.

Delhomme is 9-of-15 for 54 yards with an interception thus far in the preseason.

Wideout D.J. Hackett (toe) is among the Panthers unlikely to suit up on Saturday. Fellow receivers Muhsin Muhammad (ribs) and Dwayne Jarrett (knee) are questionable, but Steve Smith (concussion) appears set to be on the field after returning to practice earlier in the week.

Carolina leads the all-time preseason series with the Redskins, 3-1, including a 28-10 home victory in the last such meeting, prior to the 2005 season.
