That's Chris Hogan's nickname. Cam is going to have to roll with that one. It doesn't get any better.

"The Carolina Panthers signed one of the NFL’s most unique receivers in Chris Hogan, whose nickname describes his game perfectly. He was given the nickname “7-11” by former teammate Reggie Bush because of his uncanny ability to get open."

Thanks to @Steves89 for hipping us to Hogan's ability to separate, and Bush was obviously spot-on with Hogan's new moniker.

I've heard a small amount of perceived negativity about Hogan, but Pantherswire not only reminded me of the AFC Championship game the season before last (Remember?), where Hogan went for a buck 80, but the writer correctly dispels something I heard here about  Hogan having drops.

"Hogan’s routes, hands and deep ball ability should make him an excellent addition to Carolina’s wide receiver corps."

Honestly, it appears to be a pleasantly solid signing. I don't know what happen to Hogan and Brady's connection this season (other than Edelman and Gronk), but Hogan looks like he could be a great value. This signing may just be better than any signing last year, because we really don't have anything to lose and at least make an appreciable gain (no matter how small or big).

Think of it this way---He is an upgrade over Funchess and he just signed for slightly above the vet min.  Funchess will bring his skill set to Indy for $10m next season.

They call Hogan 7-11 because he is always open, then they should call Funchess VERIZON because he leads the league in dropped c/balls.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      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.
