Can we call Bashuad Breeland a former Carolina Panther? Well, whatever your preference is, he’d like to be called a current Carolina Panther pretty soon.
The free-agent cornerback was recently interviewed on an episode of All Burgundy and Gold Errrything, a podcast devoted to the Washington Commanders. And Breeland—formerly of Washington, Green Bay, Kansas City, Minnesota and Arizona—told hosts Ray and Wole that he wants to add a familiar city to that list.
“The team that I feel like would fit me right now—in my career, what I got goin’ on as far as my personal thing—it would be the Panthers,” he said while motioning at the window displaying his hometown skyline. “I feel like that’ll fit me more. I lost a deal with them during a rocky time in my career, and it’s back home. So it’ll be a lot of hurdles that I’d jump just by playing for that one team.”
The Allendale, S.C. native, reached a three-year, $24 million deal with the Panthers way back in March of 2018. That pact, however, was quickly nullified—as Breeland failed his physical due to a foot infection.
Since then, the Clemson University product picked up four more NFL stops—including one in Kansas City that netted him a Super Bowl ring just a season later. The now 31-year-old Breeland, who was last a member of the Cardinals’ practice squad late in the 2021 campaign, did not play in 2022.
