Short expected to sign the tag soon

"Per a source with knowledge of the situation."

Quote

Last year, Panthers cornerback Josh Norman didn’t sign the franchise tender — and the team eventually rescinded it. This year, Panthers defensive tackle Kawann Short appears to be prepared to avoid a similar outcome.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Short likely will be signing the franchise tender in the next few days.

Short said in January that he would most likely sign it “quickly.” There was an effort to push back on the notion that he’d pounce on the tender, and while he has given it a week without taking the money, Short likely won’t be waiting a whole lot longer.

And yeah, this source is the same source that said he wouldn't sign it quickly.

Anybody looking (or hoping) for high drama out of this situation is likely about to be disappointed.

Yep.  All that's left now is for the Colts to lock him up long term and give us those two 1st rounders.

Maybe if Grigson was still in charge...

I haven't seen any evidence yet as to whether their new GM is as stupid as Grigson.

    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings. 
    • Because he won't be here next year, we aren't winning this year and we need to see if Renfrow or Horn can be that guy going forward. If Bryce isn't good enough to do poo without AT we need to find that out this year as well. I'm fine keeping him but his role needs to be slowly reduced throughout the year anyway so we know what we have for the future
