Carolina works out four RBs

Only for precautionary reasons, I guess.

 

The Panthers are likely doing due diligence and being cautious, but this is a situation worth keeping an eye on. None of the four running backs the Panthers worked out are much good, though they are quality options as emergency depth. Former Jacksonville Jaguars RB Jalen Parmele, intriguing back Kahlil Bell, former Denver Broncos quality depth backup Lance Ball, and veteran Brandon Jackson were all worked out by the Panthers.

Stewart appears to be having some ankle issues again,remember reading this on twitter via the Panthers feed. That could be he only reason that we are looking to sign a RB. If this is true,then it doesnt look like he may ever be healthy enough to last a full season. Had high hopes for him as a featured back,but this may never come to pass.

He had ankle issues after coming back with no off season to speak of. Do you expect everything to be hunky dory? TD gets acupuncture on his knee every week and it seems to be swollen to the size of a softball. Nothing to see here.

I actually don't think that is the case.

This was tweeted by Aaron Wilson (@RavensInsider) earlier today, we signed Smith two days ago.

Workouts are only held on Tuesdays. We signed Armond to PS two days ago, which was Tuesday.

#Panthers worked out 3 RBs on Tues: Brandon Jackson, Lance Ball, and Jalen Parmele. RB Kahlil Bell visited.

7:27am - 28 Nov 13

Not trying to sound disrespectful, but do you really think that we are working guys out to replace a guy next season?

 

That doesn't make much sense when we are in the thick of the playoff race.

To sound disrespectful, what I think is that my post was, was nothing more than a thought of what could be a reason or one of many, as to why we're working out 4 RB's when we are in the thick of the playoff race.

And you asked do I really think that we are working guys out to replace a guy next season? Yes I think that it makes perfect sense. If we can find someone with similar attributes to the player we'd like to release, cut or trade, why not. What if Stew is still hurting and we're looking for someone to fill in so that we can put him (Stew) on IR.

    • Another thread where the Huddle melts down over a Bryce comment.  "Conversations" and "Bryce Young has been signed to a new long-term contract" are still far away from being the gospel.  For a fanbase that has watched two top-3 drafted QBs come here, and us move on, only to see them elevate their play elsewhere, I find it comical. Bryce is flawed but this org is damned if you do and damned if you don't with BY9.  Why would our GM and HC say anything other than supportive about their QB1. Yes, he's extended, but I truly do not think if he goes out and has a repeat of the previous seasons, that he is here beyond 2027. They're giving him every opportunity and surrounding him with a ridiculous amount of assets on both sides of the ball. If he continues to pitch 110 yd/ game and cough up the ball while everyone else is busting their ass, no way Dan keeps him beyond the extension.   
    • Ooof, I was not a Proctor fan. I agree w/ a lot of smarter folks than me that he's more of a guard and think his weight fluctuation is going to be something to navigate. I liked Lomu a lot, but figured there would be more talented guys there at 19. I also wasn't big on bringing in a TE via the draft. If it's not a vet (Njoku) or a trade for Mayer or Kmet, I'd just as soon see what the youngsters have. No need cluttering the room with more of the same.
    • Sam Darnold & Bryce Young are two very different Qbs ..just saying the last 25 years approximately 2/3 of ALL  first round Qb's  in the NFL were or are bust.so for everyone who makes it like a Sam Darnold you have two that don't make it or are a bust
