The Carolina Panthers are signing veteran offensive lineman Pat Elflein to a three-year, $13.5 million contract that includes $6 million fully guaranteed at signing, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Elflein started the 2020 season with the Minnesota Vikings, where he played before suffering a torn thumb ligament that forced him to the injured reserve list. Shortly after he made his return to practice, the Vikings released him.
Elflein then locked on with the New York Jets where he spent the rest of the season.
