We’re counting down the days until the Panthers kick off the 2024 season.
We’re officially 8 days away from the Carolina Panthers kicking off the 2024 NFL season against the New Orleans Saints. That’s right, we’re in to single digits now, y’all! It will be their second consecutive road opener. Now it’s time for our annual roster countdown to highlight the players on the Panthers’ roster. Today, we’re taking a closer look at the player wearing the the No. 8 jersey—cornerback Jaycee Horn.
The Panthers first round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Horn has been the most talented defensive back on the team since he arrived. His only challenge since entering the NFL has been staying healthy.
Horn has only played in 22 out of a possible 51 games in his three seasons.
The team was aggressive on the waiver wire this week after roster cuts in an effort to remake their secondary, which means the currently healthy talent at corner outside of Horn can be considered journeyman-level at best. The team absolutely needs Horn to stay healthy if they want to field a competitive defense.
How about it Panthers fans, what are you expecting from Horn this season? Scroll on down to the comments and share your thoughts with us!
