He would have already signed it by the time matching came into play.

So if he signed the other teams contract and we matched it, Peppers actually is bound under the contract to the Panthers....is that what you are saying?

If so, did not know that little nugget of information.

That is where the poison pill came in with Hutchinson and Burleson a few years back. Minnesota structured the deal with Hutchinson so that in essence Seattle couldn't match the offer, so Seattle had to let him go when they wanted to match the deal and keep him. Seattle did the same thing with Burleson as retaliation.

The practice is discouraged in the NFL but not outlawed from what I have read.
