Fans of the Carolina Panthers are rejoicing this afternoon with the announcement that the speedy wide receiver and return specialist, Ted Ginn, Jr., is coming back to Charlotte for the upcoming 2015 campaign.
Ginn, the perennial deep threat and fleet-footed return man had a career-year with quarterback Cam Newton and the Panthers during their 2013 season, one in which the franchise won 12 games and their divisional title. In that season, Ginn recorded 36 receptions for 556 yards and a career-high 5 touchdowns, along with over 900 net-returning yards.
Despite the sizable multi-year contract he signed with the Arizona Cardinals in last year's free agency period, Ginn's numbers saw a sharp decline as he failed to find his place in the Cardinals' passing game in 2014.
Carolina's coaching staff is hopeful that they will see more of what they came to know Ted Ginn for in 2013 when he returns to play for them in 2015. One thing that will help the Panthers' management and fans rest easy this evening is knowing that the era of Brenton Bersin returning kicks is mercifully over...
