Veteran NFL long snapper J.J. Jansen will return for his 15th season in the league after signing a one-year deal to remain with the Carolina Panthers on Monday, the organization announced.
Jansen, 37, is the longest-tenured player on the Panthers' roster and has been with the franchise since they traded for him during the 2009 offseason. In 2022, he broke Carolina's all-time record for games played of 221.
