How is that? If nor for his injury he would have been in a perfect situation to get a lot of reps with Stewart hurt again. Are you blaming Gettleman for Gaffney's injury?

 

no this is on him for waving him, overall not a big deal but a wasted pick............which sucks

What's ridiculous is the league rule that you have to cut a player to put them on IR. That boggles my brain.

Its not really cutting a player, but you aren't allowed to activate them for the rest of the year. You have to do this if are going to allow them to sign a player in place of the one you put on IR.

You are waiving the rights to the player to allow them to proceed through the wire and re-sign them to the IR. That's cutting them. What doesn't make sense, through, is why you even have to do that. If a player of yours gets hurt, he should stay yours, moving that player to IR should create the roster space.

Once you make the 53 roster you can do that. Im not arguing it makes sense...it may or may not...but its different when its not in season.

I am willing to bet that the folks whining about this are the same folks, who on game threads, call the game over the minute we fall behind.

Some folks aren't happy unless they have something to whine about. Mostly it is funny. But in times like this? Not so much.

Blame Gman for trying to IR an injured player. Or blame Stewy because we tried to IR an injured player. Huddle logic at its worse. You just can't make this stuff up.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
