Sources have indicated to Pro Football Weekly that WR Steve Smith is expected to remain a Panther this season after rumors had circulated around the league that he would be traded this offseason.

When reached for comment, Smith said he had none but indicated he would report to camp with his teammates as scheduled on Friday.

I posted this earlier

A couple of tidbits that may indicate he is staying for what its worth:

1st a tweet from Darin Gantt

The Agent 89 situation is grinding along slowly as well. If he was absolutely positively not coming back, you'd think he'd be gone already.

And again for FWIW I was listening to Carolina radio and a fan had mentioned that his son plays soccer with Smitty's son. The boy came back home happy saying Smitty's not going anywhere. Smitty is a big family man so I doubt he would feed his son some BS

    • Very fair point.  I guess when Bryce get's to play spreadout, that works for him, but Canales won't do that because it's not going to hold up for a 17 game season.   To me, this has always been a make or break year for Bryce.  Year 3, you need to know what you have.  We just don't have a full time, starting NFL QB.  I will hedge that on the fact that he's only 24 years old.  It's a small hedge, maybe just a shrubbery at this point since Bryce has had three full training camps as QB1. I guess I'm struggling with the balance between patience and performance.  My desire is to be patient since he's 24, but he's also had plenty of time to improve.  I just don't want to use send him off for peanuts and watch him reach his potential elsewhere.
    • He’s washed, I would rather play Tremayne and Coker who can also block in the run game
    • Sadly I was right about the blowout loss to the Bills but it was worse than I expected especially on defense.    Packers opened as 11.5 favorites and it’s hard not to expect them to cover. I think the defense will play better but will still get demolished by Jordan Love who is playing at a high level after that performance against the Steelers. This is the type of game we have to actually play keep-away by running the ball but not sure if our offensive line with injuries can do that or keep Bryce from getting pressured to consistently move the football on third downs.     I expect us to keep it close in the first half but Packers pull away in the second and easily cover.
