Jon Beason "I Want To Retire A Giant"

[CelticCat]

Lets not overreact to his retirement comments. Its not like he's snubbing us for a HOF enshrinement or something.

 

He knows he's getting older and hasn't got many more years left to play. The Giants are a great opportunity for him to continue being a starter at MLB for a couple more years.

 

He sure looks really happy playing again up there, energetic and slapping helmets left and right. It was likely killing him watching Keek blow it up every game at MLB.

 

Its sad to see a long time Panther wearing another jersey but this move was best for both parties. Chase has been great at OLB for us and we have Klein to develop behind him. He was gone after the year anyway.

Do you expect anything else from Beason. He is a class act and that does not leave because he is playing for another team. Every team in the league could use leaders like Jon. I'm just thankful he is not in our divison

where have i heard this before.. oh how about .. ill never go to the superbowl unless im playing in one - jon beason a while back. Its nice and sweet but the NFL is too damn competitive and unfortunately all those young men are laying their bodies on the line. By the third year of their Pro Careers they are totally done. I love beason to death but i think it will take him about 1 more year for him to be impactful but not as deadly as he used to be. :) 

 

All the best.

Better get used to seeing us move away from players because it seems that Gettlemen is more attached to winning than he is to players feelings.

 

So yea its time for the fanbase to change with the Panthers and stop clinging to every player that ever puts on a uniform.

I, distinctively, remember you defending him when i was bashing him.. and his contract......

55 was in fact all over the Beason stuff. His injury and his future replacement.

[Sam Mills Fan]

Nothing more pathetic than you people that keep trying to stir up stuff about Beason now that he's gone.

Good luck Beason...

He'll want to retire wherever he's getting a decent check. There really wasn't room for him anyways. No biggie. Wish him luck. He's very talented.

I really liked that guy a lot.  I think he had all intentions of wanting to be a great player and helping our team.  He was a leader before the injuries and said all the right things.  Sucks he couldn't stay healthy...and that I spent all that dang money on his jersey years ago. 

[BigEric]

If it bumps up to a fifth, its essentially a late fourth & ill take that for sure.

[Lakelover]

One more injury and he'll be saying I want to retire a Fox broadcaster.  He's always said all the right things.  The only problem the last few years was that was all he was doing.  Talking.

 

My best to him. This is probably going to work out well for him and the Panthers.
