It didn’t take long for Johnny Hekker to land back on his feet after being cut by the Rams. The Carolina Panthers announced on Friday that they have agreed to terms on a three-year deal with Hekker.
The Rams cut Hekker this week in a move that saved them more than $2 million in cap space. Hekker was once viewed as the best punter in the league, but he regressed a little bit the last two years.
Still, he’s an above-average player at his position and the Panthers are getting a great special teams weapon who can also keep teams on their toes with trick plays.
