About

The saga of whether the Carolina Panthers would franchise tag star edge rusher Brian Burns ended Tuesday morning as the team announced its intentions to do just that. The tag for Burns became inevitable once it was clear that he and the team could not reach a long-term deal before the franchise tag deadline. The Panthers are utilizing the non-exclusive tag, meaning that Burns can negotiate with other teams and leaving open the small possibility that the Panthers could garner two first-round picks in a trade. Julian Council reacts to the Panthers decision and whether the team has any intention on extending Burns. 

The Panthers have begun shedding salary as the team reportedly is set to move on from TE Hayden Hurst. Hurst was one of the Panthers big free agent signings from a year ago but failed to produce when healthy then dealt with a concussion that cost him the final half of the season. Julian looks at other players who could become cap casualties over the next week. 

The free agent WR market continues to dry up as the Indianapolis Colts placed the tag on Michael Pittman Jr. Will this force the Panthers to shift their focus to the draft? 

Plus, what cap casualties from around the league could be targets for the Panthers next week during free agency?
