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.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
