Video footage of the minor car accident involving Carolina Panthers star cornerback Jaycee Horn has surfaced on Wednesday morning.
Per ESPN’s David Newton, Jaycee Horn missed Wednesday’s joint practice between the Panthers and Cleveland Browns after suffering a minor thumb injury in a car accident this morning.
Thankfully, nobody was seriously injured in the accident. Horn got some stitches around his left thumb, and head coach Dave Canales said the superstar corner is “day-to-day,” though he won’t play in Friday’s preseason game.
The @charlottedashcam Instagram account released footage of several car accidents in the Charlotte area. The first video in their post shows Jaycee Horn’s SUV colliding with a pickup truck in an intersection:
This is just another reminder for everyone to be safe on the road. Always be defensive and alert, and always be prepared for the possibility of another driver doing something reckless and dangerous.
In March, the Panthers and Horn agreed to a massive four-year contract extension worth $100 million. Horn earned his first career Pro Bowl nod after recording 13 pass breakups, one interception, and two sacks.
Unfortunately, injuries have limited Jaycee Horn to 37 games over his first four seasons. The 15 games he played in 2024 marked a career-high, with 13 in 2022 previously serving as his personal best.
Over his four seasons, Horn has five interceptions and 26 pass breakups.
Horn and the Panthers kick off the 2025 season on the road against Trevor Lawrence’s Jacksonville Jaguars (1:00 p.m. EST), in a battle of former first overall picks behind center (Lawrence and Bryce Young).
Carolina’s seven-year playoff drought is tied with the Atlanta Falcons for the second-longest in football, behind only the New York Jets (14 seasons and counting). We’ll see if they can defy expectations and make some noise in the weak NFC South this year.
