Perhaps he understands that being a husband first is more important.

And I have to agree.

And both him and Funchess' pro careers reflect where their priorities lie.

You guys don't understand that sometimes you need to make sacrifices to better yourself. If his wife can't understand that then he's probably in for a long ride.

These are two subpar WR's we're talking about that need to milk every penny out of this they can. Not superstars who will get by on talent alone.

Hypothetically speaking, if a man loses his job and can no longer provide for his family... How long do you think he will continue to stay married?

Because playing football for the Panthers is literally the only thing he can do for work. The only thing. Ever. Nothing else. 

And his wife is only with him because of his football salary. Only reason. 

And because a couple of days of informal practice with a group of guys, that probably haven't thought twice about it, that happened to fall at the same time as something that had been scheduled at least a year in advance means that the trajectory of an NFL career is permanently downhill.

Please.

We are talking about contract workers here not bosses.. Meaning, if your trying to make a team as a fourth string wide out, then you obviously need the money. I probably make more this this dude and im not in the NFL... But, if you can make more money in other ventures besides your main source of income then why play at all? Dont make excuses tho, he either wants to make the team or not

Sounds like you aren't hanging around the right types of women....but that's not my business.

You're missing the point... It isnt about us feeling some type of way, it's his own personal determination that's questionable. 

If you're questioning how determined Russell Shepard is you're really out of the loop.

If anything, he's probably the hardest worker on this team right now. What he had to go through as a UDFA to get to the point he's at now is no easy task.

But you guys act like missing one glorified team-building weekend is going to break his season when he's got a whole lot of Training Camp coming up to help him.

If you're wondering, his roster spot is basically assured. He's one of the best ST gunners in the league, and he's been a team captain on multiple occasions for the Buccaneers.

You do not let that type of leadership and personality go.

People acting like Cam holding a practice with his receivers isnt important and the players dont think about it twice. To put it in perspective, if Tom Brady held the same camp every year, would you skip it if you're a 4th string wideout? It would have to be a death in my family for me not to go. Maybe im wired different but I would wanna get in all the time  with Cam that I could just to build trust and timing on routes. It's a more specialized whereas in "Team" training camp his reps are gonna be automatically limited

    • I’ve turned from a staunch detractor to him now having my 100% support. 1. He turned the worst o line in the league in to a top 10 unit in 1 offseason. Incredible.  2. Contracts to Horn and Hubbard. Reward your ride or die homegrown talent. Neither contract was way out of line for market value.  3. All of the talent he has added are intelligent, high floor types who love competing.  4. He understands that an org lives and dies off of the draft. This was the very first draft that I can remember since… ever where the franchise didn’t make a boneheaded trade and/or waste a high pick on a project tweener. No. It was Tepper sitting by almost completely mum, watching Dan orchestrate Dan’s draft…. picking intelligent high floor dudes from big name schools who showed up to play every Saturday and loved competing. It just felt right.  5. He has shown no reservation in cutting bait on guys that he sees as not having what it takes. This is really big one. It’s what the good teams do. Without it, you get the ‘coach’s guys’. Complacency. Stagnation. All these dudes needs to watch their backs.  I see him building a young core who have displayed NFL level ability. For the first time in a really long time it feels like the captain of the ship actually knows what he is doing. 
    • Jake Guentzel was a pretty elite  player and he fit us very well. And we’ve only had two offensive elite forwards under Rod. That’s Jake and Miko. Sample size is pretty small and I feel like your arguments biased. We are going to get an elite player or two In the off-season, we can be the judge of that this time next year.
    • Defense is overall bottom 5 without a doubt.  We literally do no have any depth on any position for the defense.  We are once again a couple of injuries away from being complete garbage again.   I assume next draft will be defense heavy.
