Veteran DE Julius Peppers’ role for Panthers? Much more than ‘third-and-88’
Posted Mar 25, 2017
Julius Peppers will be more than a situational pass rusher for the Carolina Panthers in 2017. Peppers, 37, signed a one-year, $3.5-million deal earlier this month. But Dave Gettleman, the team GM, said that while Peppers may or may not start, the former North Carolina star and all-time leading sacker for UNC will be a solid part of the defensive-line rotation.
