Panthers signed OG Pat Elfelin, formerly of the Jets, to a three-year, $13.5 million contract.
Carolina’s entire interior offensive line needs to be overhauled, and this is the first of many moves to fix those holes. Elflein, 26, has started at right guard, center, and left guard over the last three seasons with the Vikings and Jets. A former third-rounder from Ohio State, Elflein projects as a low-end starter on the interior. Where he’ll suit up depends on who else is brought in. His contract includes $6 million fully guaranteed.
