In 2015 he had a brutal camp. Everyone( fans) wanted him gone but the Panthers had no option after losing K. Benjamin.
During that season he came through. The Panthers O featured a lot of deeper routes. My recollection is him catching deep digs where he found holes in zones, flys and deep crossing routes. Yes, he did go after the ball but Cam often throws high so receivers have to.
The whole team that year had " IT", until the SB.
Last year he did nothing which is how he is thought of here. He couldn't catch a cold. Without checking I bet he caught only half the balls thrown his way, some of that is on Cam but No one here is unhappy or even cares that he is gone.
Tolbert is a character guy so I get that signing, not this one though.
