The former Florida pass rusher took a visit with the NFC franchise on Tuesday, but he left the facility without inking a contract. However, NFL insider Josina Anderson tweeted that the visit went well, and the two sides could come to an agreement in the coming days.
“My understanding is Carlos Dunlap’s visit with the #Panthers ended mid-afternoon. Dunlap is back in Florida. The visit went well and Dunlap is in shape,” tweeted Anderson. “Talks continue on. We’ll see how it goes.”
After coming into the league with the Bengals in 2010, Dunlap spent ten and a half years in Cincinnati. Since being traded to the Seahawks during the 2020 season, the pass rusher has been with Seattle, terrorizing the NFC West. Over the course of his NFL career, Dunlap has accumulated 96.0 sacks, 539 total tackles and 21 forced fumbles.
With his sights set on his hundredth sack, Carlos Dunlap is looking for a new home. Evidently, the Carolina Panthers could be a match.
