Not sure he has anything left in the tank.

Another SS?  Mmmkkk

According to Alaina Getzenberg, the Panthers can actually bring in up to five try out players this week same as during rookie minicamp.

She believes they'll bring in a full complement, so we'll likely be hearing other names as well.

Not that I have any expectations of him but he was a free safety.

Saftey Ha Ha Clinton - Dix has never been amongst the best at his position, outside of his 2016 season. He has, however, been a consistently good player, just not out of this world. That's why he has had at least 78 tackles in every season. That's also why he has at least one interception in every season he played.

Hopefully he has something left. We need a FS badly.

The team is moving Chinn to free safety this year.  Clinton-Dix could be competition for Burris, however.  It was either last year or the year before I wanted us to sign Ha-Ha to a (reasonable) FA contract.

At the very worst I see him being as bad as Roman Harper at his best for us. Wouldn't hate it.

I hope Malik Hooker is one of them.

Cowboys release safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix after adding him in free agency Sep 3, 2020

 

FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys released veteran safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix on Thursday.

 

In March, the Cowboys signed Clinton-Dix to a one-year, $3.75 million deal that included a $1.25 million signing bonus. The team also guaranteed $1 million of his $2.25 million base salary, but the move frees up $1.5 million in cap room.

 

Clinton-Dix opened training camp working with the first-team defense but was quickly supplanted by Darian Thompson. Clinton-Dix spent parts of five seasons playing for Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy with the Green Bay Packers before being traded to Washington in 2018. He played last season for the Chicago Bears.

The Cowboys were interested in Clinton-Dix because of his ability to take the ball away (16 career interceptions), but he did not perform up to expectations in camp.

Putting a position on Chinn will end up making your head hurt. The Panthers are looking for linebackers/safeties who can play multiple spots so they can confuse tf out of the opposing offenses.
