Panthers GM Scott Fitterer: Jammie Robinson was ‘pissed off’ when he was drafted

As evidenced by Tuesday’s episode of “Panthers Blueprint,” we can confirm that Jammie Robinson is indeed a dog.

New Carolina Panthers safety Jammie Robinson had to have come with a “Beware of dog” sign.

Among the many nuggets revealed in the third and final episode of “Panthers Blueprint” was a reinforcement of the type of player the team got in their 2023 fifth-round pick. And that type, according to general manager Scott Fitterer, was miffed.

“He was pissed off,” Fitterer said of Robinson’s demeanor when he answered the draft call. “This is a guy that was . . . I think he said, ‘There’s not 144 players better than me.'”

The two-time First-team All-ACC member did, in fact, say that—on multiple occasions. He said it to his new defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero and then to reporters shortly after the 145th pick was announced.

“I’ve been upset since yesterday,” he said of having to wait for his name to be called. “I’ve been upset about just this whole thing. But I know this pick is gonna be the best pick in the draft. Carolina Panthers, y’all know I’m finna come in, I’m finna compete for a spot. I’m just gonna be a team guy. I know there’s not 144 guys better than me. But, hey, it is what it is.”
