Jonathan Stewart retires from the NFL with the Carolina Panthers

After a long and storied career with the Carolina Panthers punctuated by a forgettable footnote of six carries for 17 yards backing up Saquon Barkley with the New York Giants, Jonathan Stewart signed a one day contract to formally retire from the NFL as part of the Carolina Panthers.

Stewart, aka Beef Stew, J-Stew, and Stewie, amongst others.. finishes his career as the all-time leading rusher for the Carolina Panthers franchise. In ten seasons with the Panthers, he rung in 7,318 rushing yards and 51 touchdowns on the ground plus 162 receptions for 1,295 yards and seven touchdowns through the air.
