Carolina Panthers WR Jason Avant said he did not approve of his standing with head coach Chip Kelly last season with the Philadelphia Eagles. Avant said he ‘mostly ran clear-out routes. … When it came to certain things, we butted heads sometimes — route running and route technique. So I knew I didn’t fit his system.’

Footballguys View: Avant was a leftover from the previous regime, so it’s not a shock that his declining usage was a sign of a bad fit. He’ll be a slot receiver and maybe the most reliable hands receiver on the Panthers this year, but that is probably not enough to make him relevant except in the very deepest of fantasy leagues.
