On March 20, Carolina Panthers general manager Scott Fitterer said he anticipates getting to work on an extension for Brian Burns after the draft. Well, it’s “after the draft.”
During the team’s post-draft presser on Saturday afternoon, Fitterer was asked if Burns’ ankle injury—one that required surgery a few weeks ago—would impact said extension. But that, like his long-term status in Charlotte, doesn’t seem to be a worry for the team.
