The Carolina Panthers reached an agreement to sign cornerback Bashaud Breeland earlier this week, but that won’t happen now, the team announced Friday.
The Panthers announced that Breeland had failed his physical due to a non-football related injury, and would not be signing the contract.
The original agreed-upon deal was for three years and $24 million, with $10.5 million guaranteed, a league source told the Observer earlier this week.
Breeland was slated to replace starting corner Daryl Worley, who was traded to Philadelphia in exchange for receiver Torrey Smith.
