The Panthers agreed to terms with Penny on Monday. Penny is now 28 years old and spent last season in Philadelphia, where he appeared in just three regular-season games and was routinely a healthy scratch on game days. When healthy in Seattle from 2018-2022, he was electric with the ball in his hands, averaging a lethal 5.7 yards per carry on 337 rushing attempts, but an inability to stay on the field was his downfall. He has a history with new Panthers coach Dave Canales from their time together in Seattle, and Penny gives the Panthers backfield some more experience behind Chuba Hubbard and rookie Jonathon Brooks. There has been chatter that Miles Sanders' time may be running out with the team after just one season in Carolina.

The Panthers agreed to terms with Penny on Monday. Penny is now 28 years old and spent last season in Philadelphia, where he appeared in just three regular-season games and was routinely a healthy scratch on game days. When healthy in Seattle from 2018-2022, he was electric with the ball in his hands, averaging a lethal 5.7 yards per carry on 337 rushing attempts, but an inability to stay on the field was his downfall. He has a history with new Panthers coach Dave Canales from their time together in Seattle, and Penny gives the Panthers backfield some more experience behind Chuba Hubbard and rookie Jonathon Brooks. There has been chatter that Miles Sanders' time may be running out with the team after just one season in Carolina.
Penny plans to sign with the Panthers, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Penny's signing is expected to become official after the conclusion of Carolina's rookie minicamp, which ends May 12. The 2018 first-rounder is coming off a forgettable season with Philadelphia, where he was a healthy scratch for all but three contests and spent most of the year operating as the team's fourth running back. With the Panthers, Penny is in line to join a crowded backfield including rookie second-round pick Jonathon Brooks (ACL), who is expected to be ready for training camp, along with veterans Chuba Hubbard and Miles Sanders.
The reserve running back was able to get on the field for two snaps in Week 9 against the Cowboys, but he was back to inactive status Monday night against the Chiefs following the Week 10 bye and is once again in street clothes Sunday. Penny doesn't figure to see any action unless injuries befall one of D'Andre Swift or Kenneth Gainwell in front of him.
The offseason addition has only garnered active status once prior to Sunday in his brief Eagles tenure, with that transpiring back in Week 2. However, the Week 9 absence of Boston Scott (personal) opens the door for Penny to get back in uniform against the Cowboys, albeit as the projected No. 3 back behind D'Andre Swift and Kenneth Gainwell.
