| Panthers DE Julius Peppers Doesn't Want A Long Term Deal? | | |
Panthers defensive end Julius Peppers recounted the story his agent told just over a week ago with Chris McClain of WFNZ's "The Mac Attack," that he hadn't heard from the Panthers this offseason about negotiating a long-term contract. And when asked if that had changed his mind about wanting to stay here, Peppers spoke the words of a man who wanted out. McClain said it sounded like Peppers no longer wanted to talk about a long-term contract, and Peppers laughed. "I'm not going to say that, come out and say that," Peppers said. "Last year, at the time, that was the option that I wanted most. But now it's not. I'm a man of very few words; I understand very well what silence means. I do it a lot and I understand that. You being silent to me, I understand exactly what you're trying to say. Because of the lack of communication, that they've had with us, if somebody asks me 'Do I want to stay in Carolina and play for the Panthers next year?,' it's like OK, well, how can you say you want to be somewhere if you're not really sure if they want you. Because they're not even talking to you."
