CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 31 (UPI) -- Four field goals from Jeff Reed Thursday night boosted the Pittsburgh Steelers to a 19-3 exhibition victory over Carolina.

The Steelers' lone touchdown came on a 32-yard interception return by Tyrone Carter.

Pittsburgh (4-1) will visit Cleveland to open its regular season.

Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger completed his only two passes of the night, as he played just one series.

The Panthers (1-3) fumbled five times and lost four of them.

They begin their season in St. Louis.
