Dan Morgan is a man of his word. The Carolina Panthers general manager promised fans that he would attack the linebacker position to find the right reinforcements. As it turned out, he secured the best possible option on the open market.
The Panthers have agreed to terms with Devin Lloyd on a three-year, $45 million deal with $25 million guaranteed. Not exactly chump change, but it's far less than initial market projections.
This is a major statement of intent from the Panthers. However, it may not be good news for everybody.
