He ain’t coming back. His attitude seems to be a problem, and one of the reasons why he has been operating on one year deals for so many teams.

When he signed his two year deal here, reporters asked him why he signed for 2 years here.  He said every deal is a 1 year deal

I dont think he was moving the needle either way but without knowing the details its a curious move.  And I wonder if there was any trade for draft comp on the table?

If there was a trade they would have taken it.

From the article:

Clowney was one of several transactions the Panthers made on Thursday. The club also placed Jonathon Brooks on the physically unable to perform list. The running back tore his ACL during Week 14 last season. By placing the second year back on PUP now, he will be out for the 2025 season. The move allows him time to get healthy after his second such tear in as many years.

Basketball to tight end convert Colin Granger was waived with an injury settlement. The club also made the following moves:

Waived (injured prior to 53) defensive tackle Popo Aumavae, released tight end Jordan Matthews, and waived receiver T.J. Luther, receiver Dax Milne, offensive lineman Andrew Raym and defensive tackle Jerrod Clark.

The roster currently sits at 62 players. The releases come ahead of rookie minicamp, the arrival of eight drafted rookies and a slew of undrafted rookie free agents who will all have to be signed.

 

 

Was hoping Raym would stick.

On one hand I would have liked to retain him because he still has value in a rotation and veteran expertise. On the other hand we've invested a very significant amount of resources in our new youth movement and we need to get them development. And at the end of the day despite Clowney being a local story as much as he is liked around these parts the reality is as an NFL talent he has bounced around the league a lot and there is a reason for that. Good luck to him.

100% agree

Why does this team hate Jordan Matthews so much after keeping Ian Thomas around for way too long?

As much hate as he got (mostly deserved), Ian Thomas was/is an above average blocker which is why is still in the league.

I like Jordan Matthews but I think he is just too much of a tweeter to be good at WR or TE.

That being said, he was a great veteran presence on the team. And I could definitely see him being brought back (yet again) if we need another TE.

I just want us to get better across the board. If the coaches think these are the right moves, I'm good with it.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
