He must not think very highly of himself... why stay here when he’s never even gotten a chance to get #2 touches?

Considering that, there may not be many other opportunities out there available, as a former 5th round pick with minimal touches there just may not be that much interest, if memory serves he was also 24 or 25 years old his rookie year so at this point he is what he is. Outside of depth which is basically readily available on most teams for JAGs at the HB spot, this is probably the best place / only place he could make a final roster.

No kidding. After seeing what happened with CJ, you’d think he’d be itching for a better opportunity. Maybe he didn’t get any other offers. Who knows.

The Carolina Panthers have re-signed unrestricted free agent running back Cameron Artis-Payne to a one-year contract, the team announced Thursday.

In his career, Artis-Payne has played in 32 games with three starts, recording 491 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 118 attempts.

Artis-Payne was selected by Carolina in the fifth round (174th overall) of the 2015 NFL Draft out of Auburn.

I'm not sure whether we ruined his chances of having an actual NFL career or whether we've basically given him free paychecks for years when no one else would've had him. Not sure I've ever seen a player stick on a roster for so long while being inactive the majority of the time.

Sweet. Rivera's dog house will be occupied for another season. 

Nah. This time we're going to give him lots of carries.

l also predict this will be the year that Damiere Byrd has a breakout season, Josh Gordon stays clean and Michael Vick finally masters the West Coast Offense.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
