Steve Smith Sr., Tre Boston tease returns after Panthers sign Josh Norman

Since the Carolina Panthers are out to win their first division title in seven years, maybe they should just keep turning back the clock.

As insurance for the injured Jaycee Horn, the team signed 35-year-old cornerback Josh Norman to their practice squad on Monday. Norman, of course, rose to NFL prominence in Carolina—where he played from 2012 to 2015.

Well, his former teammate and fellow defensive back Tre Boston seemed a tad intrigued by the move—so much so that he teased a reunion of his own.

Residents of the famed “Thieves Ave,” Boston and Norman played a pair of seasons together in Charlotte. There with them at the time was current interim head coach Steve Wilks, who led the secondary as the Panthers defensive backs coach.

But the good ol’ times didn’t stop with that tweet, as franchise legend Steve Smith Sr. also joined in on the fun.

DJ Moore, Terrace Marshall Jr. and Agent 89 in the building? Hmmm . . .

Hey, while we’re at it—does anyone know what Cam Newton, Greg Olsen, Julius Peppers and Luke Kuechly are currently up to?
