    from today's Charlotte Observer

    Merriman not a fit: Rivera, who was on Norv Turner’s staff in San Diego before the Panthers hired him, has brought in a bunch of former Chargers during his first two seasons in Charlotte. But he said the Panthers are not interested in ex-San Diego linebacker Shawne Merriman, released Monday by Buffalo.
    Merriman, the defensive Rookie of the Year in 2005 and a three-time Pro Bowler, has missed at least 11 games in three of the past four seasons. Rivera said Merriman is best suited as an outside linebacker in a 3-4 scheme.
    “Shawne’s really a 3-4 linebacker. And we’re predominantly a 4-3 defense,” Rivera said. “So I don’t see anything there.”
