Beason seeks staying with Panthers after losing job
Panthers linebacker Jon Beason says he wants to stay in Carolina after losing the middle linebacker job to Luke Kuechly. Beason, 27, is on IR since Week 5 as Kuechly emerged as a tackle leader and a Defensive Rookie of the Year contender. Beason notes Rivera may keep Kuechly inside, while Beason adapts to either inside or outside roles. Beason also aims to justify his $51.5 million contract while cheering Kuechly’s progress.
