The Carolina Panthers are 1-5, desperately need a franchise quarterback and just traded away their best player. But, according to general manager Scott Fitterer, they’re definitely not tanking.
Fitterer took the podium late Friday morning, about 12 hours after shipping running back Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers for a healthy package of draft picks. When asked if erasing the star off the roster was a conscious decision towards stacking losses, he refuted the notion.
