Yep... Panthers Wire and Cat Scratch Reader are both reporting it as well.  Bit of a surprise to me. Thought we might keep Elflein for O-line support.  Injury worries I guess.

Read somewhere, maybe a comment section, but it was stated that Elfein was going to be too expensive to keep as a backup, meaning it didn’t make sense.  Saved in the cap tho.

Yeah... CSR mentioned something about a 4.3 Mil saving against the cap this year with the release.  Apparently Elf's contract would be paying him as much as a backup as Boze would make "FrontLine" starter. We have a couple of guys that could step in if necessary.  Hope no one gets hurt.

We will add guys. Coach, coach them up. Mays n brown have promise.

Don't want to have to read thru the entire thread to see if this has already been posted, but NFL.com states the Panthers will not tender DB Miles Hartfeld (not surprised by this), and will let him walk.

PJ Walker NOT tendered.  So unless something drastic happens, he has seen his last snaps in Carolina.

PANTHERS WIRE:  PJ Walker NOT tendered-- FA Now

Yup, both accurate.

It’s official…. 

PJ Walker has been quickly signed by the Bears on the first afternoon of Free Agency.

Tutor to Fields.
