Delhomme Sharp in Drills

May 28, 2008

With all the hullabaloo made over Jake Delhomme’s elbow surgery - the lack of a solid backup to keep the Panthers afloat last year, the fact that this type of surgery can sometimes end careers, and the fact that the Panthers didn’t aggressively seek out a backup for the QB during this particular offseason, just to name a few stories - it is easy to miss the fact that Delhomme seems to be recovering nicely.  Here we have another story detailing the Carolina quarterback’s most recent workouts, and the report is that Jake Delhomme looked very sharp.

This is great news for Carolina fans everywhere.  The great fear among the fanbase is that Delhomme will simply not be the same QB next season, thus causing the Panthers to once again scramble to find a suitable replacement.  While these fears are understandable, they are at the moment unfounded.  Delhomme is progressing and healing right on schedule.  He should be more than ready to take on a full workload once training camp comes around, and until then he will continue his rehab - right on schedule, just as he has been all along.
