Why safety Vonn Bell might be the Panthers most important free agent signing

The most impactful free agent signing made by Carolina Panthers GM Scott Fitterer this offseason might be strong safety Vonn Bell.

Bell’s 3-year, $22.5 million deal should have a two-for-one benefit for the Panthers - not only are they getting a strong player in Bell, his presence will also help maximize Jeremy Chinn’s skills. But more on that later.

Vonn Bell’s background

After a successful career at Ohio State, the 5-foot-11, 205-pounder was drafted by the New Orleans Saints in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft.
