Interesting. Anyone have any further insight on this? Does this signal he’s not going to be with the Panthers?

they want his rights in case he gets cut. Means nothing vis-a-vis panthers

Jalen obviously doesn’t want to get cut but he now has an intriguing option if he does. If the Panthers cut him, they would still owe him 250k as a 17 week practice squad player. If he were to make the active roster on any given week, he would earn his pro-rated NFL salary (820k) for each week he’s active. If he were to go to another NFL team post being cut from the Panthers, that team picks up his guarantee (to prevent double dipping) and the Panthers would no longer be on the hook.
However, if he gets cut and thinks the USFL is better for his exposure, he collects the 250k from the Panthers and then can earn an additional salary from the Showboats.

Since he passed on a fifth year in FBS, I'm thinking Jay is all in on the NFL. I think exhausting possibilities in the NFL before going to the newest in a long line of below the radar competitor leagues is the way to go. Don't label yourself minor league until the NFL does so.

Sounds like hamstring is still bothering him as Jalen was placed on PUP list for beginning of camp. He can come off at any time.

I'm hoping that he is back to full health-no hammy problems--and can show what he can do in training camp.

Someone educate me - "PUP" list? It obviously is a reference to an injury list but for the life of me, I can't figure what PUP stand for. My guess: "Personally Unable to Perform?" Is that close? Thanks, in advance.

Being on the PUP is a very bad thing for an UFA, so it's great that he's been activated to participate in camp.

Love this! Several WR analysts I follow (many of which played) have said for some time his best chance to initially make a roster will be as a red zone threat. Some of his best attributes create tough matchups for defenses in their back end.
Lots of camp and preseason left! Gotta stay healthy!

Watch again closely. He’s open on his initial route (out to the corner, Dalton misses it) and then again creates enough separation on Dalton’s scramble. And that is open in the NFL lol. …it’s tough to fully appreciate how tiny the windows are in the NFL.

Free agent WR Daewood Davis carted off the field for Panthers this morning. Won’t change who Jalen has to beat out for a roster spot (stil TMJ or ISM) but could affect his # of reps.
Feel bad for this kid. UDFA out of Western Kentucky last year and signed with the Dolphins. Was immobilized after a 4th quarter helmet to helmet hit in preseason game v the Patriots and taken to the hospital. Coaches decided not to finish the game. Was released by the Fins on an injury settlement and signed with the UFL Memphis Showboats for this Spring 2024 season. Was first team All UFL.
This injury looks lower body.

And Jalen picking up more fans by the day with a lot of dunking on TMJ. This is his final year of his rookie contract with the Panthers and part of the fan base seems to think they’ve seen enough. x.com/Panther_Plugz_/status/1817928759556936129

LOVE that you can hear one of Jay’s Offensive teammates say “Got em, GOT EM”. These guys’ eyes are so good they can tell who’s going to win the rep after the first two steps.

I just noticed that theanalyst.com published a story entitled "Undrafted FCS Players Who are Strong Candidates to Make Opening-day NFL Rosters".
Who's the first name on the list? Jalen Coker! (The list is alphabetical, but who cares? JC is #1.)
