Panthers sign veteran DL off Dolphins practice squad

   

Defensive lineman Jonathan Harris is joining the Carolina Panthers after he was signed off the Miami Dolphins’ practice squad Tuesday.

Harris, 28, signed a one-year with the Dolphins in the 2024 offseason after spending most of the last five years with the Denver Broncos. The lineman originally signed with the Chicago Bears as an undrafted free agent in 2019, but was claimed off waivers by the Broncos during his rookie season.

In 31 career games with Denver, Harris recorded one sack, six tackles for loss, and 80 tackles.

The Dolphins signed several defensive lineman in free agency, but cut Harris at the end of camp and added him on the practice squad.

In September, Miami also added defensive lineman Neil Farrell Jr., a former Las Vegas Raiders fourth-round pick, to their practice squad.

None of the five defensive linemen on the Dolphins’ active roster — Calais Campbell, Da’Shawn Hand, Benito Jones, Brandon Pili, and Zach Sieler — have missed a game so far in 2024.
