The Carolina Panthers ncaa personalized heat transfers already said goodbye to Cam Newton. The team has now made the split recognized.

The Panthers released the former NFL Most Valuable Participant on Tuesday, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo reported. The group later on made Cam's cut established.

"Cam has meant a lot to this firm and the Carolinas," Panthers general manager Marty Hurney stated in a statement. "Everyone saw his performances on the field. I had the privilege of seeing how hard he proved helpful off the field, and his commitment to this team when no-one was watching. He's the ultimate competitor and it physically hurts him to lose. He willed this team to success on many occasions and will constantly be regarded one of the greatest players in the history of this franchise. His contributions to the group, this community and the game of football will leave a long lasting impact on our organization."

Carolina announced last Tuesday that it had allowed Newton to seek a trade. With few potential landing areas, no leverage, and major questions about his health, none materialized. The team moved on a week later.

Weeks afterwards, the Panthers reversed gears, announcing last week that Newton could seek a trade -- phrasing the quarterback rejected, saying the team "forced myself into this," in what can only be described as a bitter divorce spat. The same time, Carolina already had a replacement, signing Teddy Bridgewater to a three-season, $63 million contract, with $33 million fully guaranteed Los Angeles Lakers 007 Logo iron on stickers at signing.
