Panthers tried signing a RB...

but skins said psychhhh

Redskins practice squad RB James Davis indicated on Twitter that the Panthers tried to sign him to their active roster Monday, but that Washington blocked the move.

Tweeted Davis, "I thought stayin' here could be a good fit plus the Skins took care of me." Teams can increase practice squad salaries in order to "block" players from signing with active rosters elsewhere. It also sounds like Davis is confident he could get a look on Washington's 53-man roster before the season is through. Davis is someone to keep a close eye on with Ryan Torain (hamstring) and Clinton Portis (groin) banged up.

This thread looks nice under the other one titled "this team is not cheap". We don't even want to spend a few extra dollars to sign someone else's practice squad player because that team raised the salary for that player a little higher than we wanted.

So guys are passing on an active NFL roster spot to stay on the PS. Wow. HC search will be about the same based on the tune Fox is singing right now. Low point in Panthers history is right now.

Everyone gets healthy and he is gone. Prolly made a good decision since the Skins obviously like him.

eh, Davis is just thinking long term. Carolina has Williams, Stewart, Sutton and Goodson. He would be a one week or two week fill in and gone. Redskins don't have that kind of depth at RB. I think what Davis said makes sense....he has a better shot of being a legitimate player for Washington.
