Panthers left tackle Jordan Gross said he has not yet decided whether this season will be his last, Joseph Person of the Charlotte Observer reports. But if Gross plays anywhere in 2014, he said it would be with the Panthers. Gross, 33, the second-longest tenured player on the Panthers' roster, agreed to a pay cut and a restructured contract in March that essentially works as a one-year deal. Gross' contract automatically voids on the fifth day of the league year in 2014. “If I wanted to move somewhere else, this last offseason was my opportunity to do that – if I would have put up a big fuss and got myself out of this organization,†Gross said Thursday. “A year later is another year less appealing to go somewhere else. I'm not worried about the team having leverage on me if I say I'm only playing here. … I'm only going to play here.†Gross, entering his 11th season – all with the Panthers, said he wasn't concerned about his status for next season. “I really don't know,†he said. “It's nice because I don't have to worry about it. There's a lot of good outcomes that can happen.†Source: The Redzone
