Panthers May Cut Jones, Shake Up Edge Rusher Market

0:00On March 25th, the Carolina Panthers just strengthened their defense by signing edge rushers, Jalen Phillips, and Devon Lloyd in free agency. Now, they might trim the roster by cutting Patrick Jones to free up cap space. With only about $5 million left before the draft, the team could save nearly $5 million by releasing him. Jones missed most of last season with an injury, playing just four games after a solid seven-sack year with the Vikings. He signed a two-year $15 million deal last offseason, but his health issues have put him on the bubble as Carolina reloads. Teams like the Green Bay Packers, Dallas Cowboys, and Philadelphia Eagles could show interest. Those squads need edge help after losing key players or dealing with injuries of their own. Keep an eye on Jones as the Panthers sort through their cap and draft plans. It could shake up the market for a cheap, high-upside edition. This has been NFL News Today, powered by AI.
