Panthers' Charles Johnson surprised by reaction to tweet about being pulled

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Carolina Panthers defensive end Charles Johnson admitted Thursday he was surprised by the backlash over the message he wrote on Twitter following Sunday’s 38-0 victory over Atlanta.

Johnson actually wrote two messages about being pulled in the fourth quarter of the blowout that he has since taken down:

  • “Good game overall as a TEAM!!? (W)hat’s the point of having good pass rushers if u sit them at the beginning of the 4 quarter #KeepPounding"

  • “I thought passer rusher(s) are for situation like today!! Guess not.
