Panthers' Free Agency Haul: Phillips, Lloyd, Pickett

On this March 20th, here's what's making headlines for the NFL.

The Carolina Panthers just wrapped up what many call their best free agency period ever.

General manager Dan Morgan spoke to reporters Friday about the key additions, including outside linebacker Jalen Phillips, inside linebacker Devon,

Lloyd and quarterback Kenny Pickett as a backup.

Morgan praised Phillips for more than just past rushing.

He highlighted the player's strength against the run,

high energy, and physical play at the line.

Even with past injuries and fewer sacks lately, Morgan sees him as a versatile defender who chases down ball carriers effectively.

He held both Phillips and Lloyd in high regard from their college days.

Their size, length, effort, and preparation make them perfect fits to boost the existing defense.

Morgan scouted them early and jumped at the chance to sign them during free agency.

Shifting to the quarterback spot, Morgan explained the move from Andy Dalton to Pickett.

He values Pickett's mobility, ability to escape the pocket, and skill in creating plays with his legs, which are big assets in today's league.

These signing signal a stronger, more dynamic Panthers team heading into the season, with Morgan excited about the defensive upgrades and quarterback.
