Panthers Sign Jaelan Phillips to Massive Deal

0:00For NFL coverage, this is your March 9th update. The Carolina Panthers made a huge move in NFL free agency by agreeing to sign Edge Russia Jalen Phillips, formerly with the Philadelphia Eagles. The deal is for four years and $120 million, including $80 million in guarantees. This agreement comes from reports by ESPN insider Adam Schefter. It cannot become official until the New League year begins on March 11th. Carolina desperately needed more pass rush help after finishing with the third fewest sacks in the league last season. Phillips brings real upside after posting 15 and a half sacks over his first two NFL seasons. Injuries derailed his momentum, including a torn Achilles and a torn ACL. Still, he bounced back fully in 2025, staying healthy for all 17 games and recording five sacks. Panthers fans are excited about his potential, as he gets further from those setbacks. This signing could transform their defense moving forward.
