Norman wasn't in a talking move shortly after the development was announced.

"Man, I just don't feel like talking about it right now," Norman told the Associated Press.

 

He sounds pretty disappointed and hurt in regards to his release. 

 

So Josh, the ball's in your court. Do you want to get paid, or do you want to win championships? 

Any true Panthers fan should better hope that he comes back. If he doesn't, it's a hole in our secondary. 

I'm still in hopes that he comes back ONLY based on his reaction. 

Let's hope that we get him back, I for one will be sad to see him go. Until he signs elsewhere there's a chance.

I hope he comes back, but it's not looking good.

Totally agree, but tbh I'm a bit taken aback by his response to the AP. 

 

Its very telling if u ask me. Let's hope his team mates are in his ear to come back, finish what they started.

It's a remote possibility I suppose. But I would not expect him to return like a situation we saw with Charles Johnson. CJ was coming off a rather mediocre season aside from a few flashes in the playoffs. Norman was pretty much the best CB in football last season. Someone is going to throw serious cash at him.

Well, with that attitude, he's obviously disappointed. He wants that big contract, but it seems he wants it from Carolina. He's been trying to prove his worth to Carolina the past few years, and he feels he's finally done it, but the FO isn't buying it with good reason. I'd be disappointed too if the team I loved and played my guts out for didn't consider me a priority or a key piece. I think JNo will finally submit when he realizes he won't get a Revis contract anywhere. He's getting emotional on his business side of the deal, while Gman is sitting cold as stone.

I agree 100%

He will now get the choice that he wanted all along. Get to chase the money or stay home and win.

It's tough, and id like to believe that a conversation took place between Gettleman and Josh prior to the announcement. If a convo took place and he was given a heads up, I think obviously that there's a higher propensity for Josh to come back. 

I have to think that whileGettleman was right in cutting Smitty, that he learned from the way in which he did it. <--- some people won't understand that, but I know the die hards will.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'm not to sure it's a solid argument to try to estimate what he will do this season, BUT he's had a solid 3 years in the league. Here's his numbers compared to Jewell's for the same time period. I can see the logic of getting a starting MLB for a (at best) WR4. AT, XL and Tmac are certainly our top 3 guys IN 2025. Certainly worth pondering.

      Training camp just started and it's already starting... https://www.facebook.com/reel/24277303321904901/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v LOL No one believes you and you have fan pages sharing this with a "Play him or trade him" headline. Oh wee mayne. This is why no front offices wanted any part of this.

      Honestly, it only makes sense if you're trying to chase being the best bad team you can be this year. The number one question we need answered this season is whether or not Bryce is our long-term franchise QB. Trading away a second year WR who was second on the team in catch percentage, first in yards per target, and who clearly outplayed your 1st round pick for a likely one year rental fill in LB is exactly the type of short sighted desperation moves that has made us the worst franchise in the league under Tepper. We gotta stop making these types of moves and just focus on building a good organization and a good roster. Lloyd is a JAG LB another bad team and awful defense is wavering on and a couple of Panthers fans are salivating over him. Oof. We just need to be patient and wait. Definitely make some calls around the league to teams deep at LB and see if there's an opportunity to add one for a late round pick. Definitely shop the waiver wire hard. The reality is that LB is almost certainly going to be a weakness for us this year. We weren't fixing our entire roster in one off-season and we're not fixing an overall weak positional group in late July.  If you trade for Lloyd LB is still a weakness and you've given up a young promising WR who could potentially help you answer the question of whether or not Bryce is that guy. That's bad football business.
