Panthers WRs, a hot mess last season, now have speed to burn

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers' wide receivers didn't concern Captain Munnerlyn in 2016 when the Minnesota Vikings visited Bank of America Stadium. The nickelback was downright harsh after the 22-10 victory, saying Devin Funchess wasn't "that good" and the Vikings basically focused on Kelvin Benjamin.

Munnerlyn never backed down from his comments, even last season when he rejoined the Panthers after spending three years with the Vikings.

He still stands by those comments, but Munnerlyn has a new appreciation for quarterback Cam Newton's receiving corps, which has been rebuilt since last season.
