Panthers, in turn, move on from Johnny Hekker, who spent the past three years in Carolina.

Carolina is swapping out 35 year old kickers.

So, at least a few people will still understand "Pete & Pete" and "Secret World of Alex Mack" references in the locker room.

Panthers signed P Sam Martin to a one-year contract.
Martin was released by the Bills on Thursday, and it didn’t take too long for the 35-year-old to find a new home. The veteran punter averaged 46.7 yards per punt and ranked 11th with 46.3 percent of his punts landing inside of the 20-yard line. The Panthers offense looked vastly improved at the end of 2024, but he should get plenty of chances to punt the football in 2025.

Same age as Hekker. Based on what I just read on Bills reddit he's been largely average to below average numbers wise. I assume we'll be looking for a long term solution in the not so distant future.

Now to see who our place kicker will be.

I suspect we will draft/sign a rookie.

    • These moves probably mean they plan to give Derrick Brown less snaps every game. He's in the game 99% of the defensive plays. That's way too much for a defensive tackle/end his size. Definitely think they overpaid a couple of guys, since they'll mostly be rotational and situational. Unless it works. Then they paid the perfect price. 
    • Devin white hanging around as an intriguing latter free agency option. guy who always had a knack for making plays but was never consistent on a down to down basis. 
    • What's next for Cowboys in free agency? Executive vice president Stephen Jones said the Cowboys would be “selectively aggressive” in free agency. They have added depth pieces such as defensive lineman Solomon Thomas, guard Robert Jones and running back Javonte Williams, while keeping their own in defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa, returner KaVontae Turpin and punter Bryan Anger.   They attempted to make some splashes but were beaten out for linebacker Dre Greenlaw, cornerback Brandon Stephens and pass rusher Leonard Floyd.   Cap room and cash are not an issue. They have both. And the Cowboys don’t need cap room to sign pass rusher Micah Parsons to an extension. With a long-term deal, his 2025 cap number will actually decrease, even if he becomes the highest-paid defensive player.   Cornerback, linebacker and receiver are the bigger needs, and maybe backup quarterback.   Cooper Kupp has a background with new receivers coach Junior Adams. Could he become the No. 2 to CeeDee Lamb once the Rams release him (assuming he isn’t traded)? Perhaps the Cowboys will look to the trade market to fill those holes, like they did two years ago with Brandin Cooks and Stephon Gilmore. -- Todd Archer, Cowboys reporter
