The 1-7 spell of the Carolina Panthers this season so far has them looking for their answers in the past. Miracles are not enough to save the team right now and they are looking for anything that will make their days brighter. The answer to this, currently, has been found in the former Giants LB Blake Martinez. However, the story comes with its own twists and turns.

An update from Dov Kleiman throws light on what exactly the Carolina Panthers have been up to. They might be looking at Martinez as a panacea for all the problems that they have been facing till now. Would the retired LB become a Messiah for the ones at the bottom of the table?

Blake Martinez, Panthers’ Jack in the box

According to Dov Kleiman’s latest tweet on X, the Carolina Panthers are looking into the prospect of signing the veteran Blake Martinez. It might be a little late for the sore Panthers to heal themselves, as they have become one of the worst performing teams in the league quickly, this season.

Whether they will be able to get rid of the blemishes with this move remains unknown. However, undoubtedly, Martinez will put on a Panthers jersey to work out with them on Oct. 25 as the process is still in the pipeline.

One prominent among them is that he started a company called Blake’s Breaks, specializing in reselling rare Pokémon cards. However, things went downhill for him quickly and his business took a serious hit.

An unsuccessful venture for Martinez

Martinez established a business called ‘Blake’s Breaks’ on a platform called ‘Whatnot’. The company focuses on reselling rare, collector’s edition Pokémon cards on the platform. However, he was soon under the suspicion of scamming the buyers and the community was on him after certain people flagged his account. Whatnot decided to ban Blake Martinez permanently from their platform following some irregularities in his operations.

The company was doing really well, and Martinez also made over $11 million in revenue, but the walls came trickling down on him after the suspicions started rising. Whatnot was kind enough to provide refunds to the people who were scammed. A wholesome gesture indeed. Following this unsuccessful business venture, Martinez decided to return to the NFL to make a mark once again.
