Not with that cap figure you don't. And he has absolutely been trying to uplift guys on the sideline, it was reported multiple times on Sunday. The problem was he was spending too much time apologizing and not enough actually trying.

If the org wants to get something done they'll figure out the salary cap.

As far as his recent efforts at being a leader go. I'm just going to have to disagree. I have yet to see proof of the pre-draft notion that Bryce Young is this fantastic leader. If this team had leadership from the QB we wouldn't be in this current state.

The only problem is Andy is not capable of lighting anyone up anymore. The more likely outcome is that Andy plays ok but nothing special. They still lose and the Panthers still look like idiots. So no, a knee-jerk trade is the last thing they need to do.

I mean...we've cleansed the stars from this team...I'm ok with cleaning out the funk...

I think it is better to try and challenge him to be the best teammate he can be and learn and grow up.  He’ll get good respect if he does that.

Ans anyone can see he doesn’t belong on the field this Sunday or next Sunday and so on.. until he fixes some stuff he has been unable to fix to this point.
So he needs to rehab his game on somebody’s bench and we are on the hook for pretty big money.  
seems simple to me.

his contract is the issue now, too much dead cap and the whole thing is guaranteed. no chance the nlpa would allow him to redo his contract. 0.0 chance

 

best outcome- off-season trade for peanuts and 22,000,000 gets added to the dead cap. 

 

panthers take 4 years to overcome this set-back, just get back to neutral.

I honestly think they keep him another year and try to move him before year 4 of his contract. They really don't need to do anything unless he becomes a locker room problem.

IR? lol

That's only a last resort thing. It would have to be to sign someone to hold the clipboard. I dint see that happening this season.  It would make more sense to call up Jack on pray that whoever is starting stays healthy. If not, they are forced to run, run, run, punt Foxball the rest of the way.

He signed the contract. Hold him to it like the team is held to it. I mean, it's guaranteed no matter what. 

Too much money to just let him skate off to wherever. Until it suits us to send him on his way. 

 

edit: which could be if he gets rehabbed a little value wise.

I agree, but the issue with that is if BY is no longer in your long term plans and you no longer believe in him...... you can not keep dead weight like that on the roster. ugh........ sean payton(yuck) gave up on wilson with knowing it would be 85,000,000 in dead cap.  He still moved on

I got no clue on the HC or staff for 2025, but you got to part ways with BY. I always thought PJ walker was better and hes a FA, to me that means the panthers try as they may..... will release BY. Who knows there are suckers and "i can fix him" coaches out there. I mean fitterererer was the worst , but somehow he was able to trade greg little, dennis danly, and robbie anderson. 

Its best for both sides to move on, even if comes to cutting him with a 22,000,000 penalty.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
