If were are going forward with this group, they need to serious work with Shenault on his routes and hands.  He can get open and is a force once the ball is in his hands, but he's not a comfortable 'hands' catcher and to my knowledge isn't the most polished route runner.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he only has limited route tree capabilities.

My stock on TMJ is at an all-time low.  Considering I was never high on him in the first place, that's saying something.

Shenault is a horrible route runner.  They are doing great with him.  All you can do is scheme plays up for him.   He is a gadget roleplayer.

What about that young guy we just grabbed from the Chiefs? I forget his name but he’s supposed to be quick and has potential. It was probably too soon to throw him into the lineup yesterday but once he has the offense down he could be our stretch the field guy. 

The word on him is raw, but with a lot of potential.  They could have gave him some limited plays, but I guess the staff thought it was a bit too soon.  I imagine he will see a few offensive snaps next week.

We used him beautifully on the opening drive and then just seemingly abandoned it. We have to get him the ball more frequently.

Chicago had him for a few games last year and the fans loved him because he apparently helped secure them the #1 pick.

So that says something...

Naw if you watch Chicago last year or yesterday JF and their lack of playmaking helped them secure that number one draft pick. He doesn't scan the field and throw players open in his 3rd year. It's all check downs or him taking off running it's really an elementary looking offense.

I mean, but he is a gadget roleplayer.   You can only go to that well so much.  Plus, if you leave him out there to try to make it less obvious it becomes just a WR that runs bad routes and can't get separation.   2-3 touches is about what that type guy is supposed to do.  The problem is elsehwere IMO.

      injury updates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      not sure if any of this is news, but a good summary of our situation heading into training camp.  It's sure gonna be good getting Derrick back. After missing virtually all of the 2024 season, Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is aiming for a full return to the field during training camp later this summer, per Joseph Person of The Athletic. Brown tore his meniscus in Week 1 and underwent season-ending surgery that has kept him limited through spring practices, though he did participate in “walk-throughs and light side work” during mandatory minicamp, according to Person. Brown originally stated a desire to be ready for the 2025 regular season, but his timeline appears to have moved up. Brown’s injury was particularly disappointing after a career-best 2023 season. He led all defensive linemen with 103 total tackles and was named to his first Pro Bowl, earning him a four-year, $96MM extension from the Panthers in April 2024. While he has never been a prolific pass rusher, Brown’s size and power has consistently commanded double-teams and created opportunities for his teammates. His impact was evident last season, as Carolina’s run defense ranked dead-last in his absence. The Panthers spent significant resources this offseason on defensive line depth, which should allow them to manage Brown’s usage more carefully coming off a major injury. He played a whopping 940 defensive snaps in 2023 (89% of the team’s total) and was on the field for almost every play before his injury last year. With new teammates Tershawn Wharton, Bobby Brown III, and Cam Jackson ready to share the load, Derrick Brown can take a lower snap share to stay fresh and healthy for the entire season. Here are a few updates on other Panthers returning from injuries:     https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/06/panthers-injury-updates-brown-tremble-barno-wallace
