CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - The agent for Carolina Panthers defensive end Julius Peppers is convinced the five-time Pro Bowl pick will play elsewhere next season.
Carl Carey said Sunday night that the Panthers have "not made a single inquiry this offseason" regarding the impending unrestricted free agent. It comes after they went to great lengths to keep Peppers in 2009, using the franchise tag and paying him an NFL-high $18.2 million.
Using the tag again in 2010 would cost about $20.1 million. Carey says he hasn't heard from the Panthers since an informal conversation on the final weekend of the regular season and "we don't expect to hear from them."
Panthers general manager Marty Hurney didn't immediately return a message seeking comment.
