Don’t forget the long TD against the Seahawks in 2015 in the playoffs. That was awesome.

Why let stew find out about it from someone else.  This was the right way to do it

Marty was working and there was no rush.  I agree, the timing (leaving Indy) was off.  Wonder why he told SI it was too early to make a decision about Stew and then flies home the next day to do it?  He did not have to hear it from someone else--he just did not have to stop working to take a day to leave combine prep.  Hope my point is clear--I agree with the "eye to eye" approach (if not emotional).

Drafting a RB in the 1st round and have him play 10 years with your team is about as good as you can expect. JStew was a great Panther and a true pro.

Would anyone be surprised to see him come back at vet minimum?

Honestly, not in favor of it.

I think he's done.

Voth on Twitter saying Hurney was at the combine in Indy, and flew back to Charlotte just to meet with Stew in person.

That’s how you do it.

Sad to see Stew go, but it was time. Hoping Hurney will now grab a RB mid draft to pair with CMC.

It's funny to read all of the negative comments about Stewart. He can't find holes, he has never been a part of the Panthers success, he's slow, etc. Stewart has been a great Panther and a great RB. Our o-line has not been a great run blocking o-line. The majority of Stew's runs, he was hit in seconds after getting the ball, if not immediately. Stewart has been a stand up guy with Great Character that deserves some respect from Panther Phanns...

Wishing you the best Stewart, thanks for the years...

Hurney definitely knowing how to handle releases the proper way 

[Mr. Scot]

In an odd bit of symmetry, Matt Forte is retiring.

[Happy Panther]

HOF?

Let us know when you become the GM of an NFL team goober.

Which team are you the GM of asshat?

Russell Shepard is probably next. Hurney might be trying to get him to take a pay cut since he is actually a terrific special teams gunner.

Good decision by Hurney. Stew hit the wall hard and we need the money to improve the WR corps.
