Jason Avant Cut

[Metalli_cat]

More Philly, plz.

[jfo89]

Should have cut cotch instead. He's doing nothing.

[FootballMaestro]

Wow, this is not going to help Free Agents come to Carolina, unless you overpay them.  And we know Carolina has no money or Cap room to over pay. SMH

[MCC]

That's not a good look for the staff.

[Proudiddy]

He sucked anyway, at least in the role we had him. I hated the signing when we did it.

But when did he criticize playcalling? I didn't see that anywhere...

And I really hope we bring in Pettis and see what he's got if they have no plans to move Stephen Hill up. BUT, I bet it will be Marcus Lucas or Presley lol.

[FootballMaestro]

Inching towards Newton getting the Hell Out Of Carolina with every stupid move by Management!

[Proudiddy]

And for those saying this was Rivera... Lol...

This has gettleman's fingerprints all over it.

“I’ve been in the league a long time. I know two things. You never want to give a team a chance to win a game, with how much time was left on the clock. And asking a kicker to make a 50-yard field goal with the game on the line is rough sledding,” Avant said, via Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer. “If that’s the only option, yes. But if it’s not, you want to get as close as you can and think score and play to score a touchdown. Because I’d rather the team have to score a touchdown to win the game than to have to kick a field goal. It’s just a lot different. It’s a 30-yard difference.”

Why the consternation over Avant? He was a bum, still is. Means Philly sees the field more. I'm OK with that.

[TheRumGone]

someone tweet avant and tell him thanks for saying what the fans already knew

[KendrickPanther]

Definately feel his comments got him the door

Other side of the coin, can't remember the last time be caught a pass

 

Best thing he did while he was here is say what everyone is thinking.

[Davidson Deac II]

Fwiw, I think its a good move.  Even if the season is indeed over, we can find out what we have in PB for next year.  If he turns out to be a solid NFL receiver, then we don't need to spend much on the receiver group next year.  The next coaching staff will have some game film on him at least.

Not with this one... Avant criticized Cam a few times this season. I doubt Cam misses him and his blazing 7.52 forty time.

It wasn't Gettleman's clock management that he criticized.
