From @caronlinagrowl Steve Reed

Charles Johnson has confirmed he has agreed to a contract with Carolina. "I'm so excited," he said. "I'm ready to get back to football."

Charles Johnson said Marty Hurney, coach Ron Rivera and members of the coaching staff came to Miami to convince him to re-sign.

Charles Johnson said family wanted him to sign with Atl, but was blown away by Carolina's offer. "Could you have turned it down?" he said.

Johnson said he was impressed by how important the Panthers made him feel by bringing a good portion of the coaching staff along.

“They showed so much respect for me, I wanted to show it back,” Johnson said.

Johnson said he met with Rivera Tuesday morning and came away excited.

“He was telling me about the defense and how they planned to use me and I was blown away by some of the things we’re going to do this year,” Johnson said.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
