Jimmy Clausen worked out and ran for the first time Tuesday since his early February foot surgery.

Clausen admits to being slightly out of shape after three months off, but he should be healthy and in football shape by training camp. Chances are, he'll be battling for the Panthers' starting job with Cam Newton or a veteran castoff.

slightly out of shape pfnah...come on Jimmy...

if only I were offered tens of millions to be in shape, I'd be the biggest baddess cut motherfuger alive

He isn't earning 10s of millions.

He also has just been allowed to start running because of foot surgery. How the hell is he supposed to be in good shape?

He should have paid a squad of people to work out for him. Two people on his legs pumping them in the bicycle motion, another guy behind him lifting his upper body up to simulate sit-ups and both hands up and out to the side, going back and forth to work the arm muscles. It's obvious!

Duh, because he's Jimmy Clausen and he's responsible for all the crappy things in this world. Famine, genocide, natural disasters, the Carolina Panthers' offense. People need to stop bashing the kid until he proves to be a consistent turd in the NFL. Am I one of the few that just hopes he lights it up somehow, just to see how the huddle reacts?

Narwocki claims teams are still interested in Clausen and would consider a trade.

Since many teams would have him in the 3rd best QB available this year behind Newton and Gabbert, that is kinda interesting.

Half of me wants to trade him now before we diminish his value even more by letting him touch the ball again. >.>

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
