Right tackle Daryl Williams is re-signing with the Carolina Panthers on a one-year deal, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. This will be a prove-it year for Williams after an injury-plagued 2018 season.
Williams, 26, was in line for a big contract after a 2017 season in which he started 16 games for the Panthers at right tackle. Pro Football Focus gave the 2015 fourth-round pick (102nd overall) out of Oklahoma a grade of 78.0 that ranked third among right tackles in the NFL.
There was speculation the Panthers would give the 6-foot-3, 330-pound tackle an extension before the 2018 season.
