They signed then-free agent Jeremy Shockey, who made a nice number two tight end for a little while, and traded a third round pick to the Bears for Greg Olsen.Olsen has since made himself an indispensable part of the Panthers’ offense and Cam Newton’s career. It is ironic that a quarterback often labelled as a runner—in a deragotory manner Kawann Short Jersey , no less— has never put his best foot forward on the field without his favorite pass catcher in sight.That speaks volumes for Olsen’s talent and work ethic, two traits that will also hopefully buoy him along his path to recovery from a recent and uncharacteristic spat of injuries that have kept him largely off the football field for the past two seasons. The Panthers are throwing everything they can at the wall right now in an attempt to shore up the tight end position behind Olsen and their promising young tight end, Ian Thomas Vernon Butler Color Rush Jersey , but they are banking on getting at least one more season of the consistency that made Olsen a household name in the Carolinas.All reports on Olsen’s recovery are positive thus far. He may be the oldest guy on the team now, but he is still showing up in Organized Team Activities with highlight reel catches. It doesn’t seem crazy to expect at least one more great season out of the team Elder before he retires to the great broadcasting booth in the Sky(Box). Soon-to-be free agent wide receiver Devin Funchess posted a video on social media this morning saying he was looking for a “new team.”That’s largely because his old team doesn’t want him.Via Jourdan Rodrigue of the , the Panthers never even offered anything in the way of an extension.Of course Cam Newton Color Rush Jersey , they made him a healthy scratch for the regular season finale, so it was reasonably clear that they weren’t going to offer him anything.Funchess caught 44 passes for 549 yards and four touchdowns last year, and posted career highs of 63 catches for 840 yards and eight touchdowns in 2017. He had some solid moments after former General Manager Dave Gettleman traded up to take him in the second round in 2015. But like fellow big target Kelvin Benjamin (who was pawned off to Buffalo for a third rounder and eventually cut) Michael Palardy Jersey , the new administration wasn’t interested in keeping him around, building the offense around faster wideouts D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel instead.
