The Baltimore Ravens saw another one of their 2024 free agents depart for another team on Wednesday. Pass rusher Jadeveon Clowney headed south and signed with the Carolina Panthers on a two-year deal, ending his time in Baltimore after just one season.
Clowney signed with the Ravens for less than $5M last season but turned a successful 2023 into a massive 2024 payday. His two-year contract with the Panthers is reportedly for $20 million and can go as high as $24 million.

Clowney was a late free agent signing for the Ravens in 2023 and faced many questions about his fit with the team. However, he contributed 9.5 sacks and bought into the Baltimore culture, and he’s a significant loss for a team that’s already endured so many other departures.
