I was against signing Reid...

I can see having concerns about his concussion history if we were signing him long term. 

A 1 year deal?  Nope, no concerns, just hope he stays healthy and is in shape.

The concussion history is really only half the story though.

The concern comes from the fact that he has a concussion history at a position that involves a lot of hitting and his being known to play with a hard-hitting style.

Put all that together and yeah, it's something to think about.

Getting signed by a team probably doesn't do much for proving the "collusion" that he and many seem to believe in so very strongly.

I hope for the best for Reid and the defense's performance.

it actually does prove the collusion. the collusion lawsuit was started while JR owned the team. the VERY FIRST new owner who joined the league signed him. that lends credence to the existing owners having some kind of agreement.

That's the tactic I figure his lawyer will go with, but I don't really think it's that strong an argument.

For one, If there really was collusion, you'd expect Tepper to have been brought in on it. Remember, Tepper was the league's choice more than he was Jerry Richardson's.

More to the point though, it's not like Reid was signed the second Tepper took ownership. There was plenty of time between that point and now.

A soggy paper bag is better than Colin Jones. Literally nobody should be against this signing. If you even have the slightest of reprehensible doubt with this signing, it’s not Eric Reid the FOOTBALL player. 

And lmfao @ injury concerns. A one legged Reid is still better than Colin. He blows.

I’m just glad the team was proactive in improving the team and winning football games.

All the other conspiracy theories aren’t really that important. 

And all the people on that IG post that are saying they are no longer a fan. Good. Go kick rocks.

I'm just happy Colin Jones isn't playing.

Fixed.

Jones definitely has a role to play. It just shouldn't be as a starting safety.

Reid might be the best safety to ever suit up as a Panther.

Eeehhh, I'd still have to give that to Mike Minter.

Yeah Minter was better.

We don't know yet, do we?  Better keep those feet away from your mouths.
