Panthers News: Panthers G Robert Hunt believes he has that dawg in him

[BlackPanther]

Last month, Carolina Panthers president of football operations and general manager Dan Morgan put out a call for some dawgs. And now, Robert Hunt has answered it. The organization’s new 100 million dollar man spoke with local reporters for the first time on Wednesday afternoon. When asked if he was already aware of Morgan’s search for that dawg mentality, the 27-year-old offensive lineman said he was a bit busy doing his thing. “I was in my own lane, man,” Hunt replied to Joe Person of The Athletic. “So I wasn’t really looking into any team really deep. I was still working here in Miami, doin’ what I was doin’ here. So, the dawg thing kinda came new to me kinda when I signed. Just kinda heard it more then. I think there’s a bunch of dawgs in that locker room—so I’m excited to get in and fit in and play with ’em.” Hunt claimed a spot in that locker room last week, when he came to terms on a five-year, $100 million pact. Amongst all guards, the deal is the second-highest in total value and is tied for the third-highest annual average value. He was then asked if he could think of a particular moment which proves that he has that dawg in him. “I got a lot of plays out there that you can probably look up,” Hunt responded. “I think I play the game the right way. I think I’ve been playin’ the game the right way. And that’s how I go about it. I’d like to think I’m a dawg. But I think I just play the game the right way.” Well, based off his new contract, he’s certainly played something the right way.
