The Panthers have agreed on a four-year deal with rookie quarterback Jimmy Clausen. The deal includes $2.53 million in guarantees for the second-round pick out of Notre Dame. Carolina begins their training camp on Wednesday at Wofford College.

The Panthers have been looking for a wide receiver to complement Steve Smith for quite a long time. Having signed rookie Brandon LaFell on Tuesday, it appears as though he could surpass Dwayne Jarrett on Carolina's depth chart.

Panthers linebacker Jon Beason has retracted comments about his lack of desire to see free-agent wide receiver Terrell Owens come to Carolina. "There's no way T.O. could be a Panther," Beason told NFL.com. "Based on the fact that our ownership and coaches believe that the locker room is important and based on T.O.'s history, for whatever reason, he's been a distraction in the locker room." Beason used his Twitter page to apologize on Friday. "I have to apologize for my comments regarding TO," Beason wrote. "I personally would want him on our team in Carolina. He's been a great WR for a very long time and will without a doubt be a hall of famer. "I was asked if I "thought" the panthers would bring in TO ... If asked would I win the lottery I'd reply with the same answer ... NO. In my mind both probabilities are unlikely. I never said I wouldn't take TO in carolina. He'd be a great addition opposite steve smith."
