The Carolina Panthers made a tough decision when they chose to release veteran defensive tackle Kawann Short.

This offseason will hold a lot of hard choices that the Carolina Panthers have to make. On Tuesday, fans heard about one tough decision that the team decided to pull the trigger on, which was the release of former pro-bowler Kawann Short.

Short has been with the Panthers since he was drafted in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft. He was also one of the last Carolina players on the roster that played in Super Bowl 50 in 2016.
