Does Panthers' receiving corps have room for Bug Howard?

Posted May 28, 2018
Is there room for another Devin Funchess-type receiver on the Carolina Panthers' roster? Bug Howard certainly hopes so. At 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds, Howard projects as a Funchess-lite if he makes the final roster. Of course, the former UNC star doesn't have the same speed or quickness that Funchess has, part of the reason he went undrafted out of North Carolina in 2017. (Charlotte Observer)
