Panthers are going to make some noise.... a Viking perspective

I still remember him begging for pro-bowl votes on the jets sideline. He also seems kinda peeved that his boy Teddy is gone and may not get the bulk of the targets anymore. 

If he was at OTAs I probably would not view him as harshly. I realize he has played with The Darnold before but every rep counts. Guys that get that go a long way in this league, guys that don't move teams a lot. 

IDC if he shows up for OTA's as long as he shows up for the games. I have no concerns about him.

I have no issues with that, just does not seem right to me, but to each his own.

I don't know the scenario so I am not gonna judge him. I care that he produces during the season. 

If that doesn't happen and he lags behind the rest of the WR corps, then he deserves all the scorn you can pile on.

He's probably butthurt. He was likely hoping for, maybe expecting an extension. Instead, we drafted his replacement. I expect him to show up with a chip on his shoulder at camp. He's playing to audition elsewhere for his next contract.

I dont know the scenario either, but as one of the top guys on offense I think he would only benefit from attending. I guess with him not there it does allow the younger guys to get more reps, so that is a positive I suppose. 

I also care that he produces during the games. He is a Panther for now so I will support him.

It is OTA's and not training camp. I would be more concerned of he wasn't there for training camp.

This, that is my only beef with the guy. He seems like a holdout type of guy, instead of a show up and produce type of guy. If he plays well enough i dont think we let him walk without making an offer, but as it stands this is his last year as a Panther.

Yeah, I get that OTAs are not mandatory but come on.  Your job is WR on an NFL team.  The team is having workouts with a new QB.  IDC if he knows what Sam can and cannot do. Especially since you have a ton of new WRs on the team. You're supposed to be a leader of the WR Corps.  If you are truly dedicated to your job that pays you millions of dollars.  YOU SHOW UP.
