The Panthers didn’t draft K Harrison Butker to put him on the practice squad. They fully think he has a chance to beat out incumbent K Graham Gano. I have to agree.
Gano struggled down the stretch in 2016 missing three FGs in the season ending loss to the Bucs. That left a bad taste in the mouths of the Panther brass and helped open the door for some serious competition.
Harrison Butker taken in seventh round by Carolina
At Carolina, Butker will compete with Graham Gano, an eight-year NFL veteran from Florida State.
