## Resource

Will Grier, the 31-year-old QB who bounced between six NFL teams and played just two games, has officially retired — shocking fans after a brief, backup-heavy career. Drafted by the Panthers in the third round, he’s best remembered as McCaffrey’s teammate, and McCaffrey called him a legend, praising his stylish exit. With stats that read 28-228-0-4, Grier’s legacy is small on the stat sheet but big in heart. His departure clears the way for Bryce Young, Kenny Pickett, and Haynes King to fill the Panthers’ QB depth chart. Meanwhile, McCaffrey, fresh off a 1200-yard, 10-touchdown season, is focused on dominating the 49ers’ offseason practices.
