Panthers ‘keeping in touch’ with free-agent OLB Jadeveon Clowney

Don’t count the Panthers out of the Jadeveon Clowney sweepstakes.

The New York Jets aren’t the only team planning to remain active in the Jadeveon Clowney sweepstakes.

On Monday, Carolina Panthers president of football operations and general manager Dan Morgan spoke with reporters on a Zoom call from the NFL’s Annual League Meeting in Orlando, Fla. And with his team still needing to add some pass-rushing prowess to their defense, he said they’re still in on the three-time Pro Bowler.

Clowney, a Rock Hill, S.C. native, visited with the Panthers back on March 14. Following his stop in Carolina, the former No. 1 overall pick then went to see the Jets—who he, per Bleacher Report NFL insider Jordan Schultz, has “remained in constant contact” with since.

The 31-year-old is fresh off one of the most productive campaigns in his pro tenure. Clowney recorded 9.5 sacks, his most since 2017, and a career-high 71 pressures for the Baltimore Ravens, who are also reportedly interested in his services for 2024.
