Update:
Mike Freeman of the Bleacher Report spoke to an NFL GM last night who told him that there are “at least” six teams interested in free agent DE Greg Hardy.
———-
D. Orlando Ledbetter reports that the Falcons will not be among the interested teams in free agent DE Greg Hardy.
- According to Ledbetter, the team said the idea of them signing was “inaccurate.”
———–
Jason Cole, citing a source close to free agent Greg Hardy, reports that there is likely be a hearing tomorrow between Hardy’s camp and the NFL regarding a potential suspension for his involvement in a domestic violence situation that was settled out of court.
- According to Cole, the top five teams to watch in regards to Hardy in free agency are the 49ers, Falcons, Jaguars, Titans, and Colts.
- Cole adds that there are probably more teams that could use interest in Hardy
It’s been really quiet in regard to Hardy and potential landing spots, which likely has a lot to do with potential repercussions from the NFL.
Hardy, 26, will be an unrestricted free agent for the second straight season starting tomorrow.
Last year, the Panthers used their franchise tag on the defensive end, which paid him a salary of $13.116 million for the 2014 season. However, all indications are that Carolina has moved on and he won’t be back with the team.
Hardy wound up appearing in just one game and recorded four tackles, one sack, and a forced fumble before he was placed on the commissioners expect list.
We have Hardy listed as the No. 5 player in our Top 100 Free Agents list.
