New Panthers player is coming home

The Los Angeles Rams seventh round draft pick decided to join the Carolina Panthers as a UDFA instead of the Rams. 

In a tweet, he said he was coming home. 

Not only did the Rams decide to cut seventh-round Baylor linebacker Clay Johnston, but they won’t be retaining him on their practice squad, either. Johnston cleared waivers, making him available to the Rams again as a practice squad candidate. Rather than re-signing with the Rams, however, Johnston is joining the Panthers practice squad.

Johnston’s dad, Kent, is the head of Carolina’s strength program. So the two will get to remain close, rather than being across the country.

Also, Johnston rejoins head coach Matt Rhule and several other coaches from Baylor.

New to the forum so it won’t let me start a topic. Sorry to hijack the post with a question. Been a Panther fan since 96. Always lurked here but didn’t have much interest in posting until now. I coached for 14 years at a local youth organization. One of our kids got drafted this year and we have been yearning to frame a jersey of his in our office. Anyone have any idea when we will be able to buy Nike Elite jerseys again? Seems like we are one of a handful that can’t order them in the NFL store. I called their customer service and emailed the Panthers, neither has been any help yet.

Given that Google says they are made in Guatelemala and Honduras, and the way corona complicates any non essential international shipping, it may be a hot minute.

Didn’t know they were made there, thanks for your help. We will try and be patient. Looking forward to watching him play on Sunday.

      Xavier Legette is the face of the NFL at the Kentucky Derby

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
