Mike Kaye<\/a> of the Charlotte Observer. \u201cI don\u2019t care about what position I play; I feel comfortable everywhere now. So the ideal situation is just go and compete and find the field again. Being able to play on Sundays is my goal.\u201d<\/p>\nChristensen told Kaye the rehab from his Achilles was tough, and three months ago, he didn\u2019t feel ready to sign with a team. Ultimately, he and his camp felt that being patient would be his best play.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI wanted to be patient,\u201d Christensen said. \u201cI want a good opportunity. I\u2019m excited to get back on the field and kind of continue on the success I had last year. And I\u2019m just really excited to prove myself, stay healthy, and just really have a good rest of my second half of my career, however long that may be. I\u2019m excited to get back out there.\u201d<\/p>\n
Over five years with the Panthers, Christensen has started 34 games at virtually every position up front, making him a rare five-tool offensive lineman. Going forward, he\u2019s happy to embrace that aspect of his skillset rather than looking to focus in on one position in particular.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI pride myself on being a team-first player, and I feel like I\u2019ve been that with the Panthers for the past five years,\u201d Christensen said. \u201cIf the center goes down, but I\u2019m playing tackle, I\u2019ll go play center. And if the guard goes down, and I\u2019m playing center, I\u2019ll go to guard.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cHe\u2019s a great player,\u201d Paul added. \u201cSo, definitely rooting for him.\u201d Former Panthers OL Brady Christensen has been…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":944731,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2074],"tags":[223,254,2554,1842,22660,2772,224,7,18665,6,7564,595,3452],"class_list":["post-944730","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-atlanta-falcons","tag-atlanta","tag-atlanta-falcons","tag-atlantafalcons","tag-baker-mayfield","tag-brady-christensen","tag-daniel-jones","tag-falcons","tag-football","tag-michael-penix","tag-nfl","tag-patrick-paul","tag-terron-armstead","tag-tua-tagovailoa"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116914661824900043","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944730","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=944730"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944730\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/944731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=944730"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=944730"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=944730"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
