David Mayo undergoes hernia surgery

I hope he has a speedy recovery and that we re sign him cheap for depth. He is a good guy who has always played hard, and was a solid contributor for a former 5th round pick. 

Panthers linebacker David Mayo recently had sports hernia surgery, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Mayo has begun his rehab and is expected to make a full recovery.

Mayo, 25, is scheduled to become a free agent next month.

He has played in 59 of 64 games since the Panthers made him a fifth-round pick in 2015. Mayo has four career starts, including three last season.

Mayo has made 36 career tackles and two pass breakups.

It'll only be cheap if he wants it to be.

Mayo was one of the ones I was worried about getting away this offseason. The surgery timing might be in the Panthers' favor, however.

I really want him back, but I expect that he could get a lot more elsewhere. Learning from Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis looks really good on your resume'.

Mayo is a serviceable special teamer.  He has looked AWFUL the past couple of years when he has had time at LB.  He's definitely regressed (from potentially having promise to now having no promise at all).  I'm fine to keep him around in the mold of a Colin Jones, but he should never see the field at LB, just like Colin should never see the field at safety or nickel.  I say we just let his ass go, and keep Andre Smith and Carter, then draft a LB late.

    • I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.
    • Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy. 
    • I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
