It's an interesting point, do you think Cam asked to be cut rather than be a backup?

will be interesting to see the info all trickle out. 

it makes too much sense to have him on the roster.  Given how he looked and his cost.    I could see that.  BB did appear to actually like Cam.   If Cam asked to be cut....I could see BB honoring it if he was moving on.    That's just all tea reading and guessing though. 

I'm sure we will find something out soon though.

Jones does and will suck ass

I think Jones will do well in NE, he really came into a perfect system and situation.  He doesn't really have to air it out, just play smart and efficient and let the defense win some games for you.

I still think there was more to the whole "misunderstanding" about travel....  I bet Cam just flat out disregarded the teams rules....   

He didn't wear a tie when he re-entered the team facility after returning from his travel.

Cam actually had a decent preseason on field.  He is also cheap.    

I think if you don't want him it is simply COVID headaches or Cam not willing to be happy being a backup that got him cut.  Otherwise, even if you start Mac Jones.....keeping Cam would make sense. 

Agree 

Cam supposedly isn’t vaccinated.    He would not be happy in a backup role.  He will never be what he once was.   He is high media maintenance 

it was time for him to retire at the end of the season but it seems really hard for  pro athletes to accept that their bodies are finished 

I wish him the very best in his life and I thank him for making Sundays during NFL season exciting and the Panthers relevant.  Most of all,  for his charity work.

Forever grateful that I got to meet him.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
