Part of me wonders if he was not upset about not getting the job Morgan is interviewing for? I realize that he has not paid his dues in the front office...you never know.

He stepped down in March. Holy Speculation.

Wait, he didn’t resign, he RE-SIGNED!

that or the espn reporter covering our team isn’t qualified to report on intramural softball

 

Anyway, I wish Luke the best. One of the greatest of all time.

 

Raise your hand, everyone, if you think David newton can tell the difference between resigned and re-signed.

Of course probably only half the crowd probably knows this and the other half didn't and thinks I'm a grammar nazi for noticing and pointing it out.

He reportedly resigned back before free agency even started.

I don't really think there's any intrigue to it, honestly. He probably just needs a break.

He's retired and has millions to live off of. Why not take a break for a while?

Eventually, but it could be argued we weren't ok with him here.

We knew he wouldn't stay forever. We'll start winning again soon.

Sure hope so.

He certainly was something special, though. Like Julius Peppers and Steve Smith, there won't be another one like him; they are just legendary players, not just legendary Panthers.

There will be others to come. More legends in the making.

Probably headed to Washington or Buffalo like everyone else.

I believe he will end up in Buffalo, unless he's being courted for a network job somewhere....

Imagine it's tough being that close knowing you could still be out there and doing it at a high level. He'll be missed but I think it's better for the man to not revolve his life around football for awhile and cherish the other aspects. I'm sure he'll be back in some capacity in his middle age.

    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
