Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Shockey, 31, joined the Panthers last season. Although Shockey produced a career-low 37 catches, the Panthers believe he's a perfect complement to Greg Olsen, the team's top pass-catching tight end. There were previous reports that Shockey had told the New York Giants he was interested in playing for them. That's where Shockey began his career before being traded to the New Orleans Saints in 2008. There have no indications the Giants have any interest in bringing Shockey back.
