The team clearly likes this guy and believe he can make the team.

The Chapter 11 filing lists contractor Mascaro/Barton Malow as the largest creditor, with an unsecured claim of $26,809,900, which the document notes is disputed. Also disputed is the second-largest claim, $20 million from York County, S.C., that is listed as unsecured. And architect Populous’ $784,534 unsecured claim is also listed as disputed. The league has very conservative finance rules, though they apparently won’t apply to a bankruptcy filing by an owner’s company unconnected legally to the team. GT Real Estate is registered in North Carolina. Its 2022 annual report filed with the secretary of state lists Tepper as the only officer, with no mention of the team or his sports holding company. Its 2019 organizing registration filed with the state was signed by Jeffrey Kaplan, an executive at Tepper’s hedge fund company. But the league could be concerned about the image of its wealthiest owner using the bankruptcy code to avoid paying, at least fully, contractors he hired, did work, and then weren’t needed. https://theathletic.com/3345348/2022/06/01/panthers-david-tepper-rock-hill-bankruptcy/

You guys are never happy

lol Dude was so uncomfortable in that elevator with that fat man

“The problem is, there doesn’t seem to be organizational consensus in Carolina over Mayfield,” she writes. “Some are much higher on him than others, which has been an issue, a source said. If they were all on the same page and all in, they could have him on the roster in time for their mandatory minicamp June 14-16 — same as the Browns.” https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2022/05/browns-wont-cut-baker-mayfield-so-panthers-others-shouldnt-hold-their-breath-no-2-receiver-not-a-priority-browns-insider.html

There is one player who has had a tremendous start to his opportunity with the team and that's undrafted free agent linebacker Arron Mosby who played his college ball at Fresno State. "We had him on our draft board and we evaluated him a lot," head coach Matt Rhule said earlier in the week. "Thought maybe as an edge player, stand up SAM who could maybe rush the passer. Then he got here and he was a former safety. So in rookie minicamp, we noticed right away that he's light on his feet, can play middle linebacker as well. So, to me, he's a guy that's got a chance. We're going to play him at linebacker, play him at SAM, play him on the ball, we'll move him around. He's got an urgency to him that you like and has a natural feel for football, a natural instinct for football and he's a worker. Mosby is a guy that really flashed in rookie minicamp and has continued to do so." https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/gm-report/rhule-is-high-on-udfa-lb-arron-mosby-hes-a-guy-thats-got-a-chance

Handful of players in red jerseys for open OTA, including DE Yetur Gross-Matos and WR Shi Smith. Attendance is good for the voluntary work (and yes DE Brian Burns is here). — Darin Gantt (@daringantt) May 24, 2022

DE Marquis Haynes not practicing, wearing a sling, left hand in a cast. Several other players in green jerseys, signifying they’re at some point in the return-to-play protocols, including Foreman and Nixon. — Darin Gantt (@daringantt) May 24, 2022

Rhule says Marquis Haynes had surgery on his hand. Doesn’t seem to be a long-term concern (that’s my interpretation at least). — Darin Gantt (@daringantt) May 24, 2022

Jeremy Chinn said all his focus has been on being a safety, and making more plays (and having an impact on the whole defense) there. He’ll still move around at times, but that’s what he is now. He also “loves" working with Steve Wilks, he said with a huge grin. — Darin Gantt (@daringantt) May 24, 2022

SAM DARNOLDQB, CAROLINA PANTHERS Sam Darnold said he is "confident" that he "can be one of the best quarterbacks in the league." Darnold has to have this mentality, but at this point, he might not be the best quarterback on a depth chart that consists of a rookie who fell to the third round and a couple of backups. Darnold acknowledged he needs to improve his footwork to reach his goal, saying his feet were "loose" and "chaotic" at times last season. With the Panthers seemingly ready to move on, Darnold will have to come out of the gates hot to keep his starting job.

Simple and plain
