Panthers bringing in 2 WRs

[ProcessBlue2]

Velus Jones Jr.

Former 3rd Rounder from Chicago. Played WR/RB/KR/PR. Known for some pretty big muffs on returns his first year. Signed off Jacksonville's PS to our active roster.

Trent Irwin

Was coached by Idzik at Stanford. Spent most of his time with the Bengals, mostly as a returner. According to Rapoport, he is expected to be on the 53 soon.

This. We are one play away from Tommy Tremble being RB1

Velus is more of a RB than WR

Neither of these guys are much of anything 

Velus hands are worse than Legette’s.

I think they will elevate Mike Boone, who is adored by the coaching staff for some reason. 

We also have Emani Bailey on the PS who ran for 1200 yards and 8 TDs at TCU last year, he spent training camp with the Chiefs.

Agreed. I think he was brought in for KRs. I think Irwin will do punts and add an extra set of hands to the WR room. Irwin has good hands, he just struggled to get open in Cinci.

they might still. i guess first thing is making sure we've got a returner. 

supposedly they have Mike Boone in mind for the #2 RB job. we'll see

One of these guys will handle kick a punt returns because Blackshear must be more banged up the was reported.

Quick - somebody say it.  I'm not gonna say it.

Is it just me or has there been a ton of roster churn during this season?

Also, who names their kid Velus?

I think Blackshear plays this week but maybe limited and with injuries to Sanders and Brooks you don't want your RB2 returning punts too. I think we go Chubba, Boone, and Blackshear as the backs and these bums we picked up for returns.

Have they brought Boone up from the PS?
