Panthers Sign Roman Harper

TUESDAY, 1:46pm: The Panthers have officially announced the signing of Harper, via a press release.

SATURDAY, 2:21pm: Roman Harper and the Panthers have agreed on a two-year deal, reports Adam Schefter of ESPN (via Twitter). The deal will be worth $4.5MM and include a $1.5MM signing bonus.

The former Saint will help fill in the safety position that was vacated when Mike Mitchell signed with the Steelers earlier this week.

The 31-year-old Harper only started five games for the Saints in 2013, and became the odd man out when the team signed Jairus Byrd to pair with Kenny Vaccaro at safety.
