According to David Newton, the Panthers are pursuing free agent LT Duane Brown.
Panthers GM Scott Fitterer was part of the Seahawks’ front office when they traded for Brown and has a lot of familiarity with him. Carolina obviously has a major hole at left tackle.
Brown, 36, is a former first-round pick of the Texans back in 2008. He was later traded to the Seahawks in 2017 before signing a three-year, $36.5 million extension with Seattle.
Brown played out the final year of that deal and made $11 million in 2021.
In 2021, Brown started all 17 games for the Seahawks at left tackle. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 37 offensive tackle out of 82 qualifying players.
