Official Carolina Panthers at Tennessee Titans Gameday Thread


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Welcome to your Carolina Panthers at Tennessee Titans gameday thread. Please use this thread for general observations about the game. 

 

  • Cam Newton will not plays. 
  • First string players typically play a full quarter or about three series. 
  • Keep an eye on Austin Duke and Kaelin Clay later in the game. Both fighting for a roster spot. 
  • Tennessee Mom still wants Cam's :Eggplant_Emoji_Icon_42x42:, and feels guilty about it. 

 

Please do not create reactionary threads. Keep it nice and tidy in here. If you have a legitimate topic to discuss about the game that deserves its own thread by all means do it. 

 

Love,

 

Management.

You're the one stating we should keep an eye out for both.  Correct?  When neither one will make the team.  So, in essence, can you tell us why we should look out for players destined for the Practice Squad (if that)?

Because today's Damiere Byrd was also once a practice squad guy. Same with Russell Shepard who will be starting this year.

 Some of us like to keep up with such things.

Meh, keeping up with Practice Squad players that will never be on a final NFL roster.  That's like keeping up with Walk-Ons on a College Football team.  You know they're on the team, but know they'll never get any PT (unless your CFB team is complete trash).  It's better to look for battles that will impact the immediate roster, than watch for a bunch of players that won't see the field this season (unless a ton of injury attrition happens).

    • Per Bill Barnwell  Vikings bring back a familiar face Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen Panthers get: 2026 sixth-round pick, 2027 seventh-round pick A reunion between Thielen and his former team seems too easy. The Vikings are struggling with injuries at wide receiver and a potential Jordan Addison suspension. The Panthers want to see what they have with their younger wideouts, and Hunter Renfrow's emergence in camp as a potential fourth or fifth option could squeeze a roster spot for Thielen, who doesn't play special teams. The problem is Thielen's $6.25 million base salary. The Vikings obviously would prefer the Panthers cut the 34-year-old and pick him up for free, but Carolina already paid Thielen a $1.5 million roster bonus earlier in the offseason, suggesting it expected to have him. His salary isn't yet guaranteed, but it will become so if he's on the roster in Week 1, leaving the Panthers until then to make a decision. If he does get released, he isn't likely to get anything close to $6.25 million from another team, so he also is facing some uncertainty. All sides involved probably would need to give a bit to make a mutually advantageous deal work. The Panthers would eat $1.5 million of Thielen's contract, getting two of the three picks the Vikings got from the Jets in the Harrison Phillips trade in return. Thielen would take a $1 million pay cut in return for having the remaining $3.8 million guaranteed. The Vikings cleared out almost exactly that much when they made the Phillips trade, allowing them to absorb what's left of Thielen's contract as part of the deal. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46053274/nfl-preseason-trades-2025-team-offers-players-draft-picks-contracts
    • From JoeBucsFan. Teams don't usually waste 2nd round picks like that. Kind of sounds like they think he just doesn't belong in the NFL.
