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.

    • MHS, You are missing Claudin Cherelus is a LB that's in the mix for the 4th spot. He's been here for 2 years and had a couple injuries. I mean he was a wavier claim and been here for evero system, just had bad luck when given a chance. Jon Rhat is the current leader mainly cause of he is the ST ace. But Id say, Cherelus has the same % to make the roster.  CB has the recent wavier claim of MJ Devonshire a 2024 7th rounder. He's got the good-great combine numbers but he's small size. Still he's in the mix for backup duties, in fact all the non-UDFA are wavier claims.  ______________________________________________________________   Dam shame about Clowney. I view this as a bad move. I feel clowny is well worth the 7.7, even as a backup. He played hard the whole year without help. I just feel he would have helped more than either DJ Johnson or Barno.  My only cope is he's 32 and at any point his miro-knee could force him to drop off a cliff performance-wise. I wanted to keep him around at least until the trade deadline and if no chance at playoff, flip him for a anything. NFL is a meat grinder, no love for locals....
    • Might as well. We need to get these rookies on the field and see if they can play ASAP.
    • This hate this part of football and then you have to get down to the 53 Man Roster 🙁
