Don't mind Jno left. He got what he was worth. I got no ill will towards him. BUT to be fair it's not like he was tearing it up for 4-5 years and didn't get sponsorship opportunities. He had 1/2 year and then followed up with an amazing year and left. No business would have wanted him to sponsor their product after 1/2 year of good football playing on the Carolina Panthers. Maybe this offseason he could have found some but he can't blame sponsorships on Panthers IMO.

Didn't we let Josh do Conan's "Clueless Gamer" segment with Von Miller before the superbowl?
Didn't we let Josh match up one on one with OBJ for the vast majority of that poo-show Giants game media frenzy?
Didn't he get all sorts of interviews and segments about his Batman persona and "Theives Ave"?

Gross essentially was forced into a retirement date when Gettlemen did his deal.

IDTS
Gross was constantly complaining about the amount of work it took him to keep his weight on during his "This is Gross" podcast.
He probably hated being asked to take a pay-cut, but Gman literally didn't have a choice at that point with how badly our cap was screwed up at like 20 mil over, mostly due to dead money.
He certainly backed that point up about his weight.  Looks like it all shed naturally immediately following his departure.

Norman's franchise tag was rescinded by the Carolina Panthers this past offseason, and he then signed a five-year, $75 million deal with Washington in April. He told The Magazine that he felt constrained in Carolina, that he was asked to cut down on his trash talk but wouldn't because "I'm not a fake."

He said the team's conservative nature made him expendable.

"They kind of shunned me," he said. "They turned down a lot of stuff for me, interviews, sponsorship deals, stuff I didn't even know about. They wanted it to be about the two main guys, Cam [Newton] and Luke [Kuechly]."

In Washington, he said he thinks he can "grow."

"...t feels like everybody can say whatever they want," he said. "It's a free-flowing kind of place. It's like going from a dictatorship to freedom."

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      By fanpanther · Posted

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
