Keary Colbert to UFL

From PFT:

Instead of waiting for a phone call that might never come from another NFL team, veteran receiver Keary Colbert has opted to run a new pattern.

He's the latest player with experience at the highest level of the sport to accept a step back to the UFL.

Colbert has signed with the Florida Tuskers, in a move announced this morning by the UFL.

A second-round pick in the 2004 draft from USC, Colbert spent four seasons with the Panthers. In 2008, he bounced from Denver to Seattle to Detroit.

Players on UFL teams may jump back to the NFL as of late November. Some, such as Florida quarterback Brooks Bollinger, could draw significant interest.

Bollinger has played well for the Tuskers, leading them to a 3-0 record. His 759 passing yards are the most in the four-team league.

The Tuskers host Las Vegas on Friday night at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg. The contest might draw a few less people than the WVU-USF game that will be played in Tampa that same night.

In their last home game, the Bulls brought more than 55,000 to Raymond James Stadium, 13,000 more than the Bucs attracted four days later for a game against the Panthers.

i hope the ufl is successful, football is such a great sport, we need more minor leagues for some of these guys to show their skills. i don't see how baseball (god awful sport) and basketball does a better job with having minor professional leagues.

Keary Colbert is a good guy, I hope he does well in the UFL.

I remember seeing Colbert catch about 2 passes in 4 yrs so right now he has as many as Jarrett so I say any team outside of a High School team that signs him has to be desperate. Considering the Panthers are one of the most loyal Franchises in the Nfl and they let Colbert's sorry ass go should be a sign.

Colbert was actually give a decent role in the Carolina offense....he sucked. Jarrett has been given no role to prove anything.

Colbert caught 109 balls in Carolina.

In 4 years he had over 100 receptions as a panther WTF are you smoking.

Jarret will develop into a good receiver he just can't get passed Moose on the depth chart. And its not even based on receiving (I think at this point Jarrett>Moose in that) the only reason Moose still has a starting gig is because of his blocking and I think Jarrett is better at that then you all think. He catches every thing that gets to him. I see him at #2 with Moore at slot (or vice versa) sometime this season.

      Cam Newton says being "erased" by panthers has hurt his feelings..

      By Manna · Posted

      This is true. I think guys like TD, Luke, Jake, Gross, Trey Boston all have been positive and hopeful about Panther moves since they retired or left the team. They'll give their opinion about things but arent overly critical. Steve Smith has been critical but since becoming a media guy he's become more neutral, and since being part of the panthers media team (I think?) he's been more Pro-Panthers. Cam has been honest with his takes which I appreciate, and I think being PC in the media is something that won't suit him. Therefore, it makes sense why they'd prefer to not have him around media wise.

      Build up the Dline, just like the Oline

      I think a healthy Derrick Brown solves alot of problems with this current lineup. Losing him was huge. Remember, he usually plays every defensive snap. BTW, I think they should pull back from that. A guy that big should really be at around 70-75% snaps at most.  If they can draft a contributing rookie pass rusher or defensive tackle, and then bring in an above average pass rushing vet, I think this defense takes off - with a healthy D. Brown. Oh and lock up Horn asap. The longer they wait, the more it'll cost. Secondary is good enough - starters and depth. Inside LBs need an upgrade and/or depth injection. They aren't that far off. Injuries have hurt them a ton.

      Who mentioned Sanders or Ward?   You seem off your rocker about not drafting either QB.   I'm just telling you this franchise isn't going to win games until we find a franchise QB. Its really just a fact.
