I honestly think it was just a slip of the tongue. It felt like he was trying to play along with the NFL’s rules about the definition of Questionable vs Doubtful vs Out to leave the possibility open and force the Panthers to game plan for it. Because technically there’s another day where he could theoretically get medically cleared, and then he’d play. But then let it slip that “Yeah, he’s not playing.” And then immediately went back to the vague “Doubtful” line.
Let me get this straight - you think our QB who refuses to throw to open receivers, holds the ball, and takes sacks, qualifies as a “gunslinger”?
