Jackie Miles leaving the Panthers

[Mr. Scot]

The longtime equipment manager is apparently headed to New York where they just fired the guys that were part of the Eli memorabilia scandal.

Person says he may not be the only one.

Miles is remembered for refusing to give out the number 51 until the Panthers finally got the hint and retired it.

He probably likes JR so fug him. At least that's probably the mentality of the board zealots.

One can hope that’s not the case but sometimes it seems like we live in a binary society. 

 

I wish him well.

I think it's more a case of "find another job rather than wait around to see whether or not they keep me", and it's probably a common thought. 

I've heard it suggested that a number of resumes might be floating around Buffalo and East Rutherford this summer.

He also famously never issued #1 until Cam was drafted.

He had already retired and was replaced by his long time assistant. Saw that weeks ago when the rookies were getting fitted for helmets

Yeah, this should be old news that he was gone. I guess Person doesn’t watch panthers.com?

Except now he's "unretired" and going to work for the Giants.

That was JR, said #1 belonged to the fans....Cam wanted #2, Clausen had it and wouldn't give it up, so he took 1 to more or less sum up the depth chart to Clausen

Yep. I doubt we see any big shake ups this offseason but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the organization gets more or less gutted from top to bottom next year.

I'm sure being an equipment manager is harder than I would think but is that the most cush job of all time?
