Panther players responses to Josh Norman's release on social media

Almost nil.  I checked most of the players Twitter's and Instagram's, almost no mention of Josh being released.  I know it just happened today, but Panther players aren't crying out to the world about it yet.  If you see anything feel free to post it here, I'm interested to hear what the players think about cutting him loose.  But overall, the Panthers organization likes their players tight lipped about stuff like this I'm sure.  They had guys like Deangelo Williams and Steve Smith who had big mouths, and have clearly been trying to find guys who tow the line.

Only tweet I saw from a Panthers player about it was Charles Johnson @randywattson re-tweeting this post.

Cam made what seems to be an unrelated instagram post.

knew he was going to demand a lot after this past season..and he seams to be stern on his cost and Gettleman is not going to handicapp the team after 1 great season..Thats what happens when you get to the top players want more.. and the GM says see ya! Thank you we can replace you cheaper!! So I hope Norman comes cryin back

I was about to start a thread on this, I woke up realizing...Wow, I've seen literally almost NO response. 

I saw more guys wishing Luke a Happy Birthday than even making mention of any "We'll miss you bro. Always family." type of posts.

Which to me can be very telling.

So before the psychologists on the Huddle start analysing this situation into "well derrr of course Jno had to go, none of his teammates liked him" just remember there are more ways in which players communicate with each other and if one of my best mates was going to another state I'd probably pick up the phone and talk to him privately.

The idea is that there is an expectation of some kind of "thanks for the good games" from teammates.  You saw that when Smith was released, and Deangelo.  Now that's not to say Josh wasn't a well liked teammate.  But it is a little telling.  It's like announcing you're retirement and everyone going "meh."  You just tend to hear a little more chatter about these kinds of things, so I guess it is a little odd.

    • I think we pick it up and then someone else ends up emerging as the QB next year and we end up cutting him in year 5 and eating it.  That would be the most on brand thing to happen.
    • Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
