CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers plan to sign veteran edge rusher Charles Harris, a league source confirmed Tuesday.
The move comes the day after the team learned that Pro Bowl defensive linemen Derrick Brown suffered a potential season-ending meniscus injury during Sunday's 47-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
But Harris, 29, isn't considered a replacement for Brown. At 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, he would play outside linebacker in Carolina's 3-4 scheme.
Harris had a career-best 7.5 sacks in 2021 playing in Detroit's 3-4 scheme under Carolina defensive line coach Todd Wash.
