He played in Week 1, but was deactivated before the team's Week 2 game. He will be barred from team activities indefinitely. It's the same status that Adrian Peterson now has.
He'll be paid the entirety of his $13.1 million.
The Panthers call it a "voluntary leave of absence."
Hardy was found guilty of assaulting and threatening his ex-girlfriend in July. He appealed and was granted a new jury trial, which is scheduled for mid-November.
