Steve Smith wasn’t just going to let his numbers do the talking. He is launching a full nuclear attack on the Panthers and their GM Dave Gettleman.
He called into a local Charlotte radio station and let off these bombs.
Prior to being released, Smith said Gettleman told him that he was a shell of the player he once was, a distraction to the team and that he was jealous of quarterback Cam Newton.
“I say, ‘Well, is this about a pay cut?'” Smith said of a conversation with Gettlemen. “He laughs and says, ‘No, this is not about a pay cut, but thanks for asking.’ And then says. ‘We’re going to trade you.’
The rumblings he was a jealous of Cam isn’t anything new and at 35 a lot of people wondered if he had any gas left in the tank.
So far, he is proving his critics and Gettleman wrong.
