According to Jordan Schultz, the Panthers are expected to sign G Robert Hunt to a contract.
Schultz says it’s a five-year, $100 million deal for Hunt with $63 million guaranteed.
That’s a huge sum, even with how the guard market has exploded today.
Hunt, 27, was a four-year starter at Louisiana-Lafayette and earned first-team All-Sun Belt honors last season. The Dolphins selected him with No. 39 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
Hunt played out the final year of a four-year, $8,065,741 rookie contract that included a $3,425,993 signing bonus.
In 2023, Hunt appeared in 11 games for the Dolphins and made 10 starts at right guard. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 6 guard out of 79 qualifying players.
