Carolina Panthers and former Gamecocks wide receiver arrested on gun and drug charges

BY JONATHAN M. ALEXANDER AND ANDREW DYS MARCH 25, 2022 5:56 PM

Panthers wide receiver Shi Smith was arrested on gun and drug charges Friday in Union County, S.C., according to jail and court records. South Carolina court and police records show Smith was charged Friday by Union County Sheriff’s Office deputies with unlawful carrying of a pistol, possession of drugs and speeding.

Smith was given a $5,000 bond on the drug charge and a $1,000 bond on the gun charge after he appeared before a Union County magistrate judge, according to online Union County court records.

 As of 5:50 p.m. he was still in the custody of the Union County, S.C. jail. A spokesperson for the Panthers said they were aware of the matter, but declined to comment further citing “a pending legal matter.”

Smith, 23, caught six passes for 104 yards during his rookie season in Carolina. The Panthers drafted him in the sixth round from South Carolina where he stared for four seasons. He is entering the second year of a four-year rookie deal.

Smith was born in Union, S.C., where he was arrested. He is expected to be a contributor on special teams next season. This is a developing story. Check back later for updates.

Which is hypocritical for an organization (and an owner) who have promised to be better than what we had under Jerry Richardson.

Most of us probably agree but we also know that life ain't fair. He's a 6th at a redundant position.  He's gone

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
