Source: Defensive end Irvin going to Panthers

Former Falcons, Raiders and Seahawks defensive end Bruce Irvin told ESPN's Vaughn McClure Tuesday that he is signing with the Carolina Panthers. He will get a one-year deal, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Irvin brought a bit of an edge and attitude to the locker room after signing a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Falcons last November following his release by the Raiders. The deal brought Irvin back to his roots in Atlanta, and it also reunited him with coach Dan Quinn, his defensive coordinator with the Seahawks.
