Panthers sign WR Boykin

Published

on

The Carolina Panthers signed wide receiver Jarrett Boykin to a one-year contract Friday.

Boykin, 25, played his first three seasons with the Green Bay Packers. In 2013, he caught 49 passes for 681 yards and three touchdowns. But, in 2014, he took a backseat to rookie Davante Adams and caught just three passes for 23 yards in 13 games.

Boykin played high school football in Charlotte, N.C., where the Panthers are based.

“It means a lot being from the area and having the opportunity to come back and get a chance to play for the Panthers,” Boykin told the team’s website. “But at the end of the day, it still boils down to how I go about my business on the field. I have to prove myself all over again.”

The Panthers’ receiving corps is fairly light behind 2014 first-round pick Kelvin Benjamin and veteran Jerricho Cotchery.
