The Facts:
The Panthers are talking to Delhomme’s agent about a possible contract extension, but both sides say it’s too early to say whether a new deal will be reached. “There are discussions,” HC John Fox said at the NFL owners’ meetings. “There is no question we’ve got a commitment to Jake. Whether that comes to fruition with a contract (extension), I can’t say.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Wednesday was the first day either side has confirmed the contract talks. Delhomme, 34, is in the final year of his contract and is scheduled to count more than $11 million against the Panthers’ salary cap next season. The team could significantly reduce his 2009 cap number – perhaps by as much as 50 percent – with a multi-year extension.
