Jaycee Horn

The Panthers will be looking to build onn the late-season resurgence of former No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young heading into the 2025 season. One of general manager Dan Morgan‘s top priorities this offseason is an extension for cornerback Jaycee Horn, per ESPN’s David Newton. Carolina selected Horn with the eighth overall pick in 2021 […]

Horn had a down year in 2024, with a career-low 57.9 PFF coverage grade, but everyone suffered as the Panthers failed to bring in the Jimmys and Joes to run Ejiro Evero's Xs and Os. Horn did play more than 800 snaps for the first time in his career. The 2021 first-round pick is under contract for next season via his fifth-year option. Negotiating with him early in the offseason to lower his $12.4 million cap figure would likely get the Panthers some more space for free agency.
