Panthers release pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney

jadeveon clowney

The Carolina Panthers released veteran pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney on Thursday.

Clowney, the No. 1 pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, turned 32 in February and carried a $13.8 million cap hit for 2025.

The Panthers saved about $7.8 million by cutting the three-time Pro Bowl selection.

Clowney tallied 5.5 sacks, 11 quarterback hits and 46 tackles in 14 starts in his only season with Carolina in 2024.

He has 58 sacks, 139 QB hits, 15 forced fumbles, nine fumble recoveries (three for touchdowns) and 409 tackles (108 for loss) in 140 games (127 starts) with the Houston Texans (2014-18), Seattle Seahawks (2019), Tennessee Titans (2020), Cleveland Browns (2021-22), Baltimore Ravens (2023) and Panthers.

Clowney made three straight Pro Bowls from 2016-18. The outside linebacker signed a two-year, $20 million deal with Carolina in March 2024.

The Panthers picked Texas A&M edge rusher Nic Scourton in the second round and Ole Miss edge rusher Princely Umanmielen in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft last month.

Carolina also signed former Minnesota Vikings outside linebacker Patrick Jones II to a two-year, $20 million deal in free agency.
