The Carolina Panthers are adding a former North Carolina safety – just not that ex-Tar Heels safety.
Free agent safety Da’Norris Searcy is expected to sign with the Panthers as early as Friday, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation. The source requested anonymity because the deal is not yet signed.
Searcy and his agents are working on a two-year deal with Carolina, according to the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Searcy, 29, was released by Tennessee this month after losing his starting spot last season to Johnathan Cyprien.
