Panthers acquire RB Trenton Cannon. Roster now at 80

Hope it doesnt play out like the last 170 LB KR we got form the jets, Greg Dortch was not ready.

Definitely interested to see how Brady uses Samuel. I've always felt like we could be using him in more innovative ways given his background. I'd love to see some formations with him and CMC in the backfield together. Both could potentially take a handoff, be a receiver out of the backfield, or motion out wide.

I hope this year the offense is fun, win or lose.  Chud really was a shot in the arm (along with Cam) in 2011 bringing an innovative offense before he got too cute in 2012 auditioning for a HC job. 

I've got really high hopes for Joe Brady and what he can do.  I doubt he will be here for too many years, but hopefully long enough to see some success.

I had completely forgotten about him.  Add him to the pile of WR's we've tried to get behind in lost seasons to find some excitement.

I hope Brandon Zylstra can be different.  In an otherwise forgettable game last year against NO, he made 2 of the top 10 catches our WR's made for the year.

I really like our WR depth, and I think Brady will have a good plan to get them all involved.  Just hope our Oline is not the abomination it was for much of the 2nd half of last year.

With a roster of 80 and being able to keep 16 guys on the practice squad, up to 69 of these players could be on our final group of guys. Hurney was saying with all the time it takes to get folks in the building and clearing Covid protocols, replacement players are more likely to be from the practice squad versus signing outside guys once the final 69 get determined.

Remember, Rhule likes players that can do multiple things--Cannon is a multi-threat RB--one that can catch passes and return kicks and run the ball.  Sounds like a CMC  backup with special teams ability.
