CHARLOTTE — The Panthers have taken care of another rookie contract, leaving just one to go before training camp.
Fourth-round pick Brandon Smith signed his four-year deal Thursday morning.
The linebacker from Penn State creates the opportunity for matchups once he learns the defense, as his combination of size (6-foot-3, 240 pounds) and speed is rare.
His signing leaves just third-rounder Matt Corral, as the rest of the rookie class signed quickly.
