Carolina Panthers president of football operations and general manager Dan Morgan expressed his desire to keep cornerback Jaycee Horn around for the long haul during his end-of-season press conference nearly two weeks ago. But is the feeling mutual?

The Carolina Panthers have one of the top young cornerbacks in the NFL with Jaycee Horn and this offseason, they are predicted to add one of the other elite corners in the NFL to play alongside him.

Jaycee Horn has said many times, including again today, that he wants to stay with the Carolina Panthers. He's under contract for one more season after the Panthers picked up his club option, but he'll hit free agency after next season.

Unfortunately, a Pro Bowl selection does not come with magical healing powers. Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn, fresh off being named to the 2025 Pro Bowl Games this morning, did not practice on Thursday due to a hip injury.

For the Carolina Panthers, the 2024 NFL season was a mix of ups and downs. But one thing that’s been consistent has been the high-level play from fourth-year cornerback Jaycee Horn. On Thursday, the NFL recognized Horn for his elite play and awarded the 25-year-old his first-career Pro Bowl selection.

Without Jaycee Horn, the usually reliable Carolina Panthers pass defense was in utter shambles on Sunday. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Baker Mayfield passed for well over 300 yards and five touchdowns in a 48-14 win.
