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.

    • yeah, now it's going to get awkward.  The team circles pay attention to all this stuff.  All the wives and girlfriends see the posts.  They all talk like everyone.  Football is just a normal world outside of the fact they play a game for lots of money.  Gossip travels. They know the Theilen's want out at this point.  Carolina is now the disappointed failed trade location.    So now AT takes sort of an inhouse hit in Carolina IMO  
    • Ummm... The dude looked like he was about 180 pounds soaking wet with us (I don't care what his listed weight was/is) - he would have been destroyed in the run game even more than our current and past crappy ILBs. The problem is we primarily play 3-4 or nickel/dime - there is little room on the field for him because he isnt an edge LB blitzer and he can't cover for crap. The only thing he can do kind of well is be an in-the-box safety that can try and beat blockers to the spot because of his athleticism. Washington was able to make him work last year because they used him solely as an in-the-box safety and almost exclusively ran a single high FS. The funny thing is they had good yards/game stats against the pass despite most of their secondary having embarrassingly low PFF grades. Washington was also terrible against the run, which might explain why they gave up so few yards passing.
    • Just get the deal done. We've teased it so much that the Thielen's expect it. Now we run the risk of our veteran WR locker room presence becoming disgruntled. Just take what we can get, make him happy, and get future assets while freeing up snaps for guys who will be here beyond this season.
