Jadeveon Clowney upset about being released


Recommended Posts

“I got a sense then they wanted me out of the building,” Clowney said. “I was just like, ‘Y’all could’ve told me this back when I was coming in here during the offseason.’ I kind of had a sense, though. I’ve been around the game long enough to know, so I was OK.”

I wonder why he got a sense they wanted him out of the building…..it’s because of his sh*tty attitude. Go back and listen to him talking about our QBs leadership skills (to the media) when he was just signed to the team and hadn’t even had time to gel with his teammates (all players know you don’t say things like that to the media….you keep it in the locker room). History repeats itself. He’s a player who is decent, gets signed to a team, they get tired of his attitude, and he’s on to another team one year later

Not enough talent to overcome the drama, I suppose. 

It ain't a talent issue. Dude's talent was off the charts. Just seems like he never had the drive to be great. Was always willing to just rest in his talent and settle for being good. He definitely COULD'VE been great.

from a football perspective I think releasing him was the wrong move

That being said Clowney has always seemed to have an attitude that rubs people the wrong way. I mean how many teams has he been on at this point? 

My bet is that the Panthers actually didn't want him mentoring the young guys and now we have space to sign a FS. do not kill me gamecocks fans this has nothing do with your fine university 

We'll see how that works out bc that edge room looks very very iffy

He's a rotational pass rusher on the worst defense in the NFL.  We're not missing much by letting him go.  Later dude.

Clowney's resume reads:

Hit a Michigan RB really hard that one time. Drafted #1 overall. Never had a double digit sack season. Started on the worst defense in NFL history. Oh, did I mention he got a Michigan RB really hard that one time?

He had big potential 10 years ago.  Now he's just an average NFL pass rusher with an attitude problem.

Exactly. He has made a literal multi contract career off of one hit, hope, and his God given measurables.

I was unaware of the idea he doesn't have a good attitude. I liked the idea of keeping the veteran aspect of the depth but if it wasn't a positive influence then that is different.

I am interested to see what they might do now.

    • Another Guard?? Small ball was just a meme right?????   Again can anyone confirm Kon had more than 2 dunks for the season?? I watched more highlights and saw lots of layups. Did see one thunder dunk tho...   Jeff just needs to finish this off-season with a guard package trade for a PF/C. Call Portland, that's a start!
    • XL treatment is in the top 5 What The Fuccks for the the huddle. It just happens that the 32nd team and 33rd team GMs knew each other very well. Panthers viewed the 5th year option as being worth a late 6th and a trade was made to make XL a 1st rounder.  He had injuries in OTAs, mini camp and TC. Like others had more injuries in season and just kept playing. Half the season was bad BY and dalton. He still had 500 yds, 5 TDs, and like 45 recs.  Just super weird the treatment. BTW people love to focus on the bad plays, but there was only one WR that caught a TD on the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year, can you guess who that was?? By many accounts the Pats wanted XL badly and had to select Polk instead, there's strong rumors that Polk is either going to be cut or traded for a 2078 7th rounder. Panthers could have easily been in this situation if not for the Bills allowing the trade up. It pays to have friends.... I feel XL will force some fans to plates of raccoon as he develops. (please stay healthy)
