The Panthers have added another low-cost, unproven player to the roster in former Saints wide receiver Keith Kirkwood, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Kirkwood gets a 1-year deal. He'll be reunited with former Saints QB Teddy Bridgewater and coach Matt Rhule, his coach at Temple for three years.

He's a serviceable WR, caught 13 balls in 2018, pulled his hamstring in warmups during Week 2 last year and we never saw him again.

Not a fan of the Saints. Getting tired of the nuthugging of the Saints organization from our staff and front office. Following the Saints to hell is not getting us to the SuperBowl again. They are pathetic and not a role model unless your intention is to become vile and classless. Find better heroes. Smh

And yet which team has gotten closer the last few years? If going to hell gets us another Super Bowl, SIGN ME TF UP.

Hell can't be hotter than Louisiana in the summer anyway, it's probably nicer considering there wouldn't be any humidity.

According to a report by Adam Schefter at ESPN, former Saints wide receiver Keith Kirkwood is signing a one-year deal with the Panthers.

After playing for Matt Rhule at Temple, Kirkwood went undrafted and first signed with the Saints in November of 2018. He started out on their practice squad but he wound up playing in eight games that year, totaling 13 catches (11 of them going for first downs), 209 receiving yards and two touchdowns. For most of the 2019 season he was on the injured reserve list after getting hurt Week 1 against the Texans.

If nothing else, Kirkwood (6-foot-3, 210 pounds) brings familiarity with the system Carolina will be running. At LSU, offensive coordinator Joe Brady used a very similar scheme to the one Sean Payton employs for New Orleans.

Kirkwood is the second free agent wide receiver the Panthers are signing this year. The other is former Raiders and Ravens wideout Seth Roberts.

We actually got there more recently, you guys choked. Kinda like the priests your organization advised at the local diocese. The vile consulting the vile. Good luck with that Karma.
