According to a report, the Carolina Panthers are set to privately workout cornerback Cyrus Jones.

It is probably a safe bet that the Carolina Panthers will be looking for depth at the cornerback position in this year's NFL Draft and it makes sense for the team to take a closer look at Cyrus Jones. According to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle tweeted that the Panthers would be working Jones out privately.
