Gano could possibly go to IR per Rodrigue

The Panthers signed long snapper Andrew DePaola to take Vaeao’s place on the roster. DePaola will fill in for snapper J.J. Jansen on Thursday night.

Jansen has an injury to his left hand.

DePaola is a veteran who has played for three different teams since 2014, most recently with the Raiders. He played the 2018 season opener before a season-ending knee injury.

Carolina also reached injury settlements with guard Norman Price and linebacker Jonathan Celestin, who both were on injured reserve.

Been saying that for weeks.  I think that is definitely the right move. If he isn’t healthy now with an jury from December I have little faith he would last the year.  And right now we have a viable backup.  If we try to put Slye on the PS someone would grab him.   

Lets just hope that Slye doesn’t go out and shank 3 tomorrow.  Lol.

That’s why an 8 game tryout works perfectly. If he truly bombs that badly, we can bring someone in after 3-4 games until Gano is eligible. If he’s mediocre then ride it out until Gano comes back. If he’s good then trade Gano. Someone will need a kicker at that point and Gano is a good kicker.

I am as well. Gano seems to have a lot of injuries for a kicker, which is also concerning and he is making a lot of money. With all that being said we definitely need him this year at this point and can look at other options next year when his dead cap will be about 3 million

    • yeah, I can get a little of that.  But that's not what he is posting in his argument just now though.   He said people wouldn't even concede to the literal ability to do it when pressed on the literal ability.  I have never seen that.  He maintains it exists somewhere.  I mean, using anomaly games to make arguments about players just isn't the way.   There wasn't a defender within 10 yards of our guys on 2 of those 3 throws Sunday.  No one within 5 on the 3rd.   That's not Bryce Young answering questions about his play downfield..  That's Bryce Young taking advantage of coverage busts by a bad D.  Which hey, that's part of the game too.  Recognition and seeing the field.   It can't totally be dismissed.   That's still good play.  You want your QBs to make those plays.  But it's not getting into the long standing critique of BY IMO.   
    • Deserved, I wouldn’t use that word. Asked for? For sure. Am I upset over it? No.  People forget that AT was throwing his helmet in frustration last season over his QB’s ineptitude. The same QB was pretty inept to start this year, no guarantee AT would have helped him in those games any more than he did last year.  Just sayin.  And Dan doing him a solid probably did not go unnoticed by players around the league. I think it increases his rep with potential FAs. It sure can’t hurt it. 
    • You think that was the fault of the guy that was lighting it up or maybe the bums around him? Funnily enough, those bums are still being bums in his absence. Who would have thought!
