Robby Anderson attends Panthers minicamp for the first time this offseason

After missing all of OTA’s earlier this month, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson returned to practice Tuesday for the first day of mandatory minicamp. He had previously skipped all of the team’s voluntary OTAs earlier this month.

Anderson was the only uninjured Panthers player to miss all previous Organized Team Activities.

Anderson said he felt at this point in his career, he knows how to get himself ready, adding that the program he was working on with his trainer was going well.

He said the coaches and his teammates approved of it.

“I was working,” Anderson said. “It’s not like I was doing nothing.”

Anderson is on the last season of a two-year $20 million contract with the Panthers. Anderson made $8 million in 2020 and will make $12 million this year, according to overthecap.com. Anderson is the 27th highest-paid wide receiver in the NFL.

Anderson had the best season of his career in 2020. He caught 95 passes, which was 10th in the NFL, for 1,096 yards and three touchdowns. It was his first 1,000-yard season in his five-year career.

He led the Panthers in receptions and was second in receiving yards behind DJ Moore.

Panthers coach Matt Rhule has not commented specifically on Anderson’s absence. Anderson is expected to again be a key piece to the Panthers’ offense this season. He reunites with former Jets quarterback Sam Darnold, who the Panthers traded for in April.

Anderson caught passes from Darnold for two years in New York before joining the Panthers in 2020.

Great to see Robby Anderson return to practice for first day of mandatory minicamp. I was never anxious about his return, taking into consideration  that Rhule has been Andersons coach since college and was one of the reasons he even made it to the league.

    • Here's the thing. You compared him to Jake. Jake was signed to the practice squad out of college. Bryce was the number 1 overall. Their expectations are wildly different and so are their contracts. You can talk all you want about what a player is and where they are now and all this other mumbo jumbo, but Jake never had a 5th year option and we weren't talking about the possibility of a top 5 QB contract extension at the end of his 3rd year. What he was expected to be matters because we invested heavily at a cost of future capital, including a 2nd round pick this year, for him to be that guy. The cost to add Bryce took value from the team. To be worth it, he has to add that value back.  Actually, I don't prefer yards, TDs, or only INTs. All those stats by themselves are misleading which is why I said you have to use a lot of different stats. ADOT - Average depth of target.  Completion %. Pretty obvious until you factor in ADOT. 0-5 has a lot higher C% than 10-15%. Hang time. If a pass is in the air for 4.6 seconds vs 3.1 on a 40 yards throw, that gives a DB a lot of time to correct. Is it a loft or is it a laser.  EPA - Expected points added. A way of measuring QB efficiency on every play.  CPOE - ranking pass completions based on several factors, not just the throw.  There's obviously more, but those are the more common.  Typical stats don't show everything. You need to look all over. Looking at a stat line is lazy. That's why I said, you need to analyze everything. Once you start looking at the numbers you start looking at the player. That's why you follow numbers. They lead you places. You look at what happening when the numbers show you patterns. That's where you start finding the problems that yards, TDs and Ints won't show you.     
    • It's not relevant who wins or loses. It's about actually attempting to get better at the position.
    • Thank you. I don't understand how the Bryce stans don't see this. I've never seen a player get more hyped for doing so little. Honestly it's driving me a little insane.
