Delhomme to injured reserve

Carolina Panthers QB Jake Delhomme is headed to injured reserve, according to Adam Schefter, after he tested his injured finger this week and the swelling continued. This is probably good news for Panthers fans, who have absolutely had it with his lousy play.

So, is the Delhomme era over in Charlotte? Could be, but it’s tough to say. In last year’s playoffs, Delhomme thoroughly stunk up the joint against the Arizona Cardinals and the Panthers rewarded him with a new contract.

After a completely worthless 2009 season, who knows, maybe he’ll get the keys to the city.
