This is great, thanks for posting. Btw, Charlotte Vibe has many interviews with Panther players. Guys like Ryan Delaire, Bene', Kony, Kawann and Josh Norman. Worth your time.

My heart wouldn't let me go no where.

- Charles Johnson

If this alone doesn't tell you the type of locker room and culture Ron and Dave have built within the organization. Nothing will.

I'll always remember his post on twitter when he was injured and traveled on his own dime to the game.

Good find OP.

Honestly thats the first time Ive really heard him talk, sounds like a very humble and good person.

Usually when he gets interviewed by Panthers.com, in the locker room or what not, he's very short and to the point so it's hard to get a "read" on him.  I know he has done a ton for his H.S. in GA, is a team captain/leader, and is a genuinely good dude and the extended interview def. shows that. I agree with The Huddler, ton of respect for him coming back for less $$$.  This just reinforces how important a positive / drama free locker room really is.  Very underrated aspect of pro sports.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
