The NFL can be a cruel business. Fans of the Panthers can certainly attest to that this offseason, which began with Luke Kuechly’s sudden and shocking retirement, followed by an emotional exit for Greg Olsen and then the coup de grace yesterday when Cam Newton was released.
Some folks aren’t happy about the way this was handled, especially the timing of the release. Stephen A. Smith for one thinks the team screwed him over. Watch what he had to say on ESPN.

We tend to disagree with Stephen more often than not, but in this case he has a point.
