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.

    • Thanks to BC's versatility and the addition of Nijman as a swing OT, the costs we have spent on the OL may save us a roster spot.  First, Brady Christensen has played OT and OG for Carolina, and he has always been a notch below average, according to PFF.  Last season, they talked about giving him looks at center, but his injury prevented that from happening.   Most of his experience here is at G, but he also has swing OT abilities.  Nijman is an excellent swing OT, an important addition that gives us Ekwonu insurance and depth at both T spots.  If you consider Cade May has been mentioned as the new backup Center behind Corbett, then he also has the ability to play 3 positions.  Here is how you have solid depth three deep and you do so with better and fewer players.  In the past, the OL has been a madhouse when a lineman goes down--we had 2.  It seems we had someone new in the game every week.  The OL needs to know the system and they need to communicate.  If I were coach, I would carry 8 total OL on the 53-man roster, saving at least one roster spot, and I would feel confident that I had depth on three levels.  Here is what it would look like: (I would keep Zavala on the PS to begin the season--he needs it)  Green indicates a free agent addition
    • Nice to have a front office that actually is trying to address the o-line for once. 
    • I hope you find a way to enjoy the team.
