Panthers DT Derrick Brown sidelined with potential season-ending injury

Fresh off a 47-10 blowout loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 1, the Carolina Panthers got more bad news Monday. 

Star defensive tackle Derrick Brown, who signed a four-year, $96 million extension this offseason, reportedly suffered a potentially season-ending knee injury Sunday that will require surgery on his meniscus.

Brown, the team’s first-round pick in 2020 out of Auburn, is considered arguably the best player on a Panthers team looking to start fresh in its rebuild behind second-year quarterback Bryce Young and new head coach Dave Canales. 

Brown, 26, is coming off a breakout 2023 season in which he surpassed 100 total tackles for the first time, recording 103.
