Last year, amid a rash of injuries to their defensive tackles, the Panthers swung a deal for Louis Leonard, sending a sixth-round pick to the Browns for the interior defensive lineman.
The Panthers have now decided to cut him loose, according to Steve Reed of CarolinaGrowl.com.
Leonard landed on injured reserve early last year, and he struggled through the offseason with ankle and knee injuries. He missed the Week Two loss to the Bucs with an elbow injury.
Says Reed, “At times he looked like an old man walking off the field.”
That’s never a good thing. Unless your name is Favre.
Even then, it’s not a good thing.
