REPORT: Panthers hope Daryl Williams will return in second half of season

Recommended Posts

Williams is trying to rehab the injury rather than having surgery and will remain out long enough that Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that he is expected to open the year on injured reserve. As long as Williams remains on the active roster through the cut to 53 players, he’ll be eligible to be designated to return after eight weeks on the list.

It’s a much bigger risk for Williams than us and if he wants to do this then fine by me.

He also want be 100% until after surgery. Hopefully it all works out and we sign him to a decent contract.

Where the huddle doctors at? Is this a smart move?

Not at all.

Believe Trent Williams had the same injury prior and tried rushing it. Didn’t turn out so well and clearly didn’t look the same.

ProFootballDoc also advised against it.

If the MCL heals well I could see him back in a few months. Not sure what kind of grade the tear was but if they’re considering the conservative route it must not be too significant.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
