The Carolina Panthers have signed former Jaguars linebacker Devin Lloyd to a three-year, $45 million contract, which includes $25 million guaranteed. Lloyd, who was considered the top free-agent linebacker available, will bolster Carolina’s front-seven alongside newly signed DE Jaelen Phillips. The 27-year-old was a first-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft and recorded impressive stats in 2025 with 81 tackles and five interceptions. His fifth-year option was declined by the Jaguars, making him an unrestricted free agent in 2026.
