Cotchery’s visit with the team will continue tomorrow, where he’ll either sign an offer, or he’ll return to Pittsburgh. The Panthers are really in need of a productive veteran receiver, and Cotchery fits that bill. Right now based on the WR market, the odds seem to be in favor of Cotchery getting a decent deal outside of Pittsburgh. We’ll know soon enough one way or the other.
