Panthers release Keyshawn

The Panthers have reportedly released WR Keyshawn Johnson.

"They said they wanted to get younger," Johnson told the St. Petersburg Times. "That's fine with me. I'd like to go somewhere and help someone win another Super Bowl." The Panthers' decision to draft Dwayne Jarrett was apparently not so he could study under Johnson, then contribute in the future. Jarrett and Drew Carter are now likely to compete to start. May. 1 - 2:31 pm et

This definately came from left field.

LMAOOO he was sooo excited draft day on ESPN because the panthers picked him lol bet he is not too happy .... I think falcons could get him.... chargers????? hmmmmmmmmm.......

What would he cost for a year?

He has toned his attitude down a couple hundred percent, and was a postive influence on Carter and Colbert. I think he has been humbled by the Tampa experience and his role as Smith's second.

I'd take him over Patten anyday.

He seems to put himself out there and in the media's eye, hosting the draft for instance. This could get us more exposure...

I never had a problem with his attitude and I would like it if the get him, assuming they think they can use him.

He did not get a roster bonus. He wasn't due one, however he was due something like 2 million as part of his 5 million signing bonus from when he signed last year. So that is paid in-full but they don't owe him any futher money.
