Bersin's Contract status?

Hey all, quick question.

Brenton Bersin's contract status seems to be reported differently on different sites.

Spotrac has him listed as a exclusive rights restricted free agent:  http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/carolina-panthers/brenton-bersin/

Over the Cap shows him as being under contract for $600,000  http://overthecap.com/player/brenton-bersin/2813/

 

Bersin is not listed on several of the free agent lists posted (eg. at the Observer http://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/nfl-blog/article60123511.html

or BBR  http://blackandbluereview.com/a-quick-peek-at-the-panthers-upcoming-free-agents/ )

 

Anyone out there know the scoop?  All I can find on Panthers.com is that last year on March 9 he signed a 1 year contract.

Obviously he's not a high priority player to re-sign, but he does provide some depth and is reportedly a good mentor, and able to play any of the three WR spots, and has the playbook down cold.  So.... for 600K, I'm not too averse to him sticking around.

Ultimately I think BB parlays this into a coaching career at some point.  He is not the most talented guy on the roster but he is smart and reliable when called upon (let's forget about those punts he was forced to field). For anyone to stay this long in the NFL as he has and to overcome the practice squad and being active/not active so much lends some credence to his abilities. I'm pulling for him no matter what happens...I'll be following his career arc.

    • Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure. 
    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
