Reported on ESPNHD and NFL network a second ago..

Panthers Announced John Fox will not return as Head Coach Next Season.

----
He better make a nice closing statement to other teams that potentially want him.

Yeah if The Fox upsets Atlanta his options will look brighter. If he loses he will probably be sent to Buffalo.

Yeah coaching in Al Davis land is one step away from mopping floors at an asylum. Even when Carolina was competitive Coach Fox never annoyed me like Mike Smith does.

Oakland is an upgrade over Buffalo, they have been lighten up teams this year..
If Fox get that gig he'll have a field day with that team.

Lighting it up or not, AL Davis is what makes coaching in Oakland a nightmare. I guarantee any coach would choose Buffalo over Oakland.

Tough year for the guy but no one should be the least bit surprised

I'm not surprised he's getting canned, but why couldn't they have waited until MONDAY to tell him?
