ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Panthers are signing QB Andy Dalton to a two-year, $8 million extension with the team.
Schefter adds the deal has $6 million guaranteed and a maximum value of $10 million. Dalton was scheduled to hit free agency this offseason but will instead remain in Carolina.
Dalton, 37, is a former second-round pick of the Bengals back in 2011. He was entering the final year of his seven-year, $97.09 million contract, which included $17 million guaranteed when Cincinnati cut him loose.
Dalton signed a one-year deal with the Cowboys after the draft as a backup. The Bears later signed Dalton to a contract for the 2021 season as their starter before eventually turning to rookie Justin Fields.
Dalton joined the Saints on a one-year deal before signing a two-year contract with Carolina last offseason.
In 2024, Dalton appeared in six games and started five times for the Panthers, completing 66.3 percent of his passes for 989 yards, seven touchdowns and six interceptions.
