Per Panthers Twitter. Hope he recovered completely and balls out in 2019!

Probably, but I am rooting for the kid. He went to high school with my kids and by all accounts is a really good guy.

Don't mean to be a dick, but the way things go these days I have no idea if a dude has signed a new contract or quit the team due to some off the field issues. That hyphen is important.

Just goes to show you how hard it is to actually play in the NFL.  Big time recruit, good college career... and now hoping for practice squad.

Has to be a humbling business - especially when you’ve basically given your life to your craft.

I'd be fine with carrying him as our #3 RB who pretty much doesn't see the active roster unpess for injury. I honestly think he's probably better than CAP.

Shallow, uniformed, 3 word comments are stupid. This guy can ball. If he's healthy he can spell CMAC for a play or two throughout the game. Same type of player. Good backup option

You never know when a guy like him will just click and become something pretty special. If he could fill a Nic Goins or Fozzy Whitaker type role with the team, then that's a win.

Good luck to him!

Interesting that the Panthers chose to bring him back as they seemed to me enamored with players that mirrored CMC’s skill set.

Hood’s skill set is closer to Anderson’s.

He still has one of the best high school highlight tapes that I’ve ever seen from a North Carolina football player, just runs over player after player.

A good option for a camp body or practice squad guy.

I think we still want a power RB on the roster. 

If we're going to stick with the two active RB philosophy, I'd like to see us get more strategic with it based on the match up. Get another RB that better mirrors CMC in terms of being a good runner in space with receiving ability, but alternate him with a power running like Hood in terms of who suits up and who sits week to week based on that particular match up. If it's a stout run D, play CMC-lite. Weak run D that we can beat up on the ground, play the power guy.

Thank  you.  I thought he hung em up.

Hope he is better with capitalization to avoid similar misconceptions:

Well... at least it's news.
