The Carolina Panthers have tendered a contract to Raheem Blackshear, indicating the team's intention to retain the player for the upcoming season. This move was largely anticipated as Blackshear could only negotiate with the Panthers unless they decided to release his rights. The decision to keep Blackshear is seen as beneficial, especially with new kickoff return rules being considered, suggesting his role on special teams could be of significant value.
