A month after he was released by the Texans, David Carr agreed Friday to a two-year deal to play for the Panthers. Carr, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2002 draft, will serve as Jake Delhomme's backup. "It's a case where we were obviously looking for someone to come in back up Jake and the opportunity to get a quarterback the caliber of David in free agency is unique," Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said. "We thought it was a good situation and a good opportunity for us."

Quarterback David Carr might meet with the Seahawks on Wednesday. Carr, who was released last week by the Houston Texans, was in Carolina to meet with the Panthers Tuesday.
