CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Outside linebacker Jeremy Cash was asked following Thursday night’s preseason finale against Pittsburgh how much weight he’d gained since the Carolina Panthers signed him as an undrafted free agent out of Duke.
“Sixteen,’’ he said.
Asked how he did that, Cash deadpanned, “Eating.’’
Oversimplified? Definitely. Maybe even a bit cute in a smart-aleck sort of way.
But if Cash makes the 53-man roster when final cuts are announced on Saturday, you can say he literally ate his way onto it.
