Panthers Release Jadeveon Clowney
The Carolina Panthers released edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney on Thursday, sources tell ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Clowney will hit the free-agent market after spending just one season with the Panthers in 2024. In 14 starts for them last year, the 32-year-old veteran pass-rusher had 46 tackles (24 solo), 5.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss, 11 QB hits and four pass breakups. The move to cut Clowney this offseason will free up $7.78 million in salary cap space this year for the Panthers. The three-time Pro Bowler was the first overall pick by the Houston Texans in 2014 out of South Carolina. Clowney does have 58 career sacks in 11 NFL seasons over 140 regular-season games played, but he's battled various injuries and has never posted a double-digit sack campaign. He should latch on elsewhere but probably won't be anything more than a rotational pass-rusher.
