Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

RB Jonathan Stewart has signed a five-year contract extension with the Carolina #Panthers.

Bill Voth ‏@billvoth

Hurney: "“We are thrilled to be able to extend Jonathan for five additional years. He is a perfect fit for our organization." #Panthers

Panthers PR Dept. ‏@Panthers_PR

Since 2008, @Jonathanstewar1 1st year in the @nfl, the #Panthershave produced 9,189 rushing yards, most in the NFL.

Bill Voth ‏@billvoth

So #Panthers can keep Williams/Stewart for at least four more years. Tolbert has contract through '15. That QB can run a bit, too.

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter

Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart signed a five-year extension worth $36.5 million and a max of $42.5, including $22.5 million guaranteed.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

#Panthers RB @Jonathanstewar1: “I’m happy and blessed to have this opportunity."

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

JStew: I just want to thank Marty Hurney, Mr. Jerry Richardson & the entire Panthers organization for believing in me & getting this done.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

@Jonathanstewar1: “This is a special team and great running back group. I love Charlotte, and I’m glad this will be home.”

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Ben Dogra, agent for Jonathan Stewart, says the deal is a four-year extension with option for 5th year. $9M signing bonus, $9M option bonus.

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Dogra said Stewart signed the deal between 5:30 and 5:45 p.m. Both sides wanted it done before the game. Started working on it after season.

Glad you could stay J-Stew.

    • There's only two paths to that happening. First is that Theilen misses a significant chunk of the season, the other is that XL and Coker both either flop or have injuries themselves. I love the pickup of Renfrow as I think he'll be great in the locker/film room for all the young guys while giving us a natural replacement of Thielen in the WR room next year to be the wiley old vet in the room. But he has almost no path to getting snaps this year unless the guys ahead of him have injuries or just suck.  Assuming he makes he squad, he's more likely to be inactive more often than he's active on game days.   And he's not the best route runner on the team, that's still Thielen, who even at this point in his career is still one of the better route runners in the league.
    • I'll go ahead and say it because the average poster is too scared to say it.  Hunter Renfrow is the best route runner on the team.  He will catch more balls than a couple of those dudes added together.  It's Short King season!   Get on the wagon while there are still seats available! 
    • But that's the WR4 this year, we only have one year left of Thielen. If Coker has injury issues and/or regresses and shows why he went undrafted, unless Horn ends up REALLY living up to the minicamp hype, we'd actually end up in need of another good WR option next offseason again. I love the potential of T-Mac, XL, Coker, Horn as our 1-4 next year and into the future. And while I of course have a million percent belief that T-Mac is going to be that guy for us, it's still a big year for the rest of the WR room to prove we're set at the position for the foreseeable future once Thielen is gone after the season.
