The Carolina Panthers announced the signing of former Minnesota Vikings guard Jeremiah Sirles on Friday morning.
Sirles, a free agent signed to a one-year deal, will add depth on the offensive line following the departure of Andrew Norwell to the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency.
At 6-foot-6 and 315 pounds, Sirles has experience at both guard and tackle, and mostly as a backup. In 2016, however, he started 10 games at right tackle and one at left guard.
In 2017, Sirles started four games at left guard.
