Panthers

According to Joseph Person of the Charlotte Observer, there is a good chance that Panthers CB Josh Norman misses offseason workouts and OTAs, considering that contract negotiations have stalled and he appears to be in no rush to sign his franchise tender.

However, Panthers GM Dave Gettleman does not think this will become an issue.

“I don’t think there’ll be any issues. He and I had a great conversation before I put the tag on him,” Gettleman said. “He understands where I’m at. I understand where he’s at. We respect each other’s stance and we’ll just see if we can get (it) done.

“I have to make decisions based on the best interests of the Panthers. We have a philosophy moving forward,” Gettleman said. “We’ve tagged Josh. We have the intention of having him play for us and we’d like to get a long-term deal done. Time will tell. Contracts get done when they’re supposed to get done.”

Person reports that Gettleman spoke with Norman’s agent this week, but the two sides remain “far apart.”
