With the No. 8 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers have selected South Carolina cornerback Jaycee Horn.
Horn (6-1, 205) is the son of former NFL wide receiver Joe Horn. He was a three-year starter at South Carolina and has the versatility to play corner in any defensive scheme and is experienced at covering the opposing team’s No. 1 receiver.
Three-year starter with tantalizing combination of size and length that is clearly effective when matched in tight man coverage. Horn can line up in any cover scheme and often traveled with the opponent’s most talented target.
