Farewell to Jon Beason

We should also remember how Jon handled Luke coming in here and taking his spot.  He could not have handled that situation with more class. 

 

I look forward to the day Beason has his number retired here.

 

Not a chance that Beason's number gets retired.  He did not do enough to come close to warranting that honor.

Meh, I felt worse after Pep left.

 

Peppers didn't want to be here for the long haul. He made that clear.

 

For me, it's always tougher to see guys leave who really love their team and their city and want to play there forever. I wish Beason could retire a Panther, but this is the nature of the business. Simply put, Beason signed a big contract, got banged up and is losing his role on this team.

I talked to Beason after he was first moved to OLB a few years ago.  He was positive and upbeat.  Then he sang Luke's praises and accepted a lesser role. 

 

He was with Davis throughout his rehab.

 

Beason will be better in the middle, but I have to wonder how his body has held up through several years of the pounding a MLB gets. 

 

I hope he fires that Defense up in NY and takes it to the Saints, Falcons, and Bucs.  He will bring them knowledge and leadership.

I'm glad for him to get a shot, something that wasn't going to happen here.

 

 

Great player his first few years.

 

No trouble off the field.

 

Class act when transitioning Luke into his spot.

 

Took a paycut so something like this could happen.

 

Long term he helped the team.

 

This is exactly what I would have hoped to do in Beasons and DG's spot.

 

Good luck Jon.

    • One thing about it, he's not thinking about retiring. I found it odd that some Huddlers were taking rumors and running with them, imagining a slow down and "up-playing" injuries. Moton feels great and is still in his prime according to him, and his game is still indicative of his thoughts.  Sure, it may ultimately come down to economics, but I am sure that everyone involved is motivated to keep him in Charlotte.
    • I think the knee stuff with Moton has been blown way out of proportion. The exact quote was “It’s chronic stuff. Most linemen deal with it. But it’s just figuring out what we can do to make sure it’s limited and I’m still able to explode off it, which right now I can and I feel like I can in the future,” After a while, you start learning more about it and what can we do to make sure it’s as little of an issue as possible. I feel like I’m moving like I was when I was younger.” I don't view that as a guy who's saying his knees are on their last leg I see that as a 10-year NFL olineman saying that obviously after 10 years of playing a really physical sport, he's never truly gonna be 100% healthy again and he's gonna need to spend more time with the training staff to ensure his body can continue to perform at a high level. I think Moton has another 3 to 5 years left if he wants to continue playing.   
    • So much crying. Tiresome. All of you should have had enough time to come to terms with the team picking up his 5th year...
