DeHaven, 67, was diagnosed with prostate cancer in the spring of 2015 and learned a short time later it had spread to his back. DeHaven left the team Sunday and will resume treatments in his offseason home of Buffalo, according to sources.

Thomas McGaughey, hired in February as the Panthers’ special teams assistant, will take over for DeHaven. Former Panthers and Giants linebacker Chase Blackburn, in his first year as a special teams intern, will assist McGaughey.

This is almost like our 2003 run. We were motivated by Mills and Fields and made it all the way to the Super Bowl. This year is SB 51 (Mills' old number btw) and here we are again. DeHaven's fighting spirit will help fuel this team in 2016. #Pound4DeHaven

    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
