Good Ol’ Kawann Short has got to be looking around the Carolina Panthers locker room, seeing all the new faces, and wondering when he’s going to get a tap on the shoulder to go “have a chat” with Marty Hurney. All of the rest of the Panthers long-term, high-priced veterans are gone. Only KK remains. I feel dirty for saying this because I have a ton of respect for Kawann, but it’s probably in the Panthers best interest to look to trade their 31-year-old defensive stalwart.
The stark reality for the rebuilding Panthers is that it’s probably going to take a couple of years before this team is competitive again.
