Peppers Still Wants Out of Carolina

Julius Peppers is adamant about about leaving Carolina, and he says its not about the coaches or the system. He just wants out.

“Basically, it’s a situation where it’s the point in my career I want to do different things,” Peppers said in a conference call with local reporters.

He said if the Panthers were to use the franchise tag, his first step would be to ask for a trade so he get to a system he feels can maximize his abilities. According to Peppers and his agent Carl Carey, that system is the 3-4.

“I’m just looking for a chance to do things with the abilities I have, that playing this position I’m playing now doesn’t allow me to do.”
