Over his eight-year NFL career, Rowe has appeared in 100 games – starting 56 of them. He has racked up 381 tackles, 41 passes defended and five interceptions. Rowe has moved from cornerback to safety throughout his career, proving his versatility. Furthermore, he provides the Panthers with a veteran safety net in the secondary.

Carolina already signed Vonn Bell this offseason. They have intriguing options returning such as Xavier Woods and Jeremy Chinn. At cornerback, the Panthers have two former first-round picks in Jayce Horn and CJ Henderson.

Eric Rowe won't suddenly come in and make the Panthers world beaters. However, he is a key veteran addition to a Carolina defense that is trying to take a big jump in 2023. His experience will help younger players such as Horn and Henderson.

Furthermore, he has proven to still be a strong player at age 30. The Panthers will count on him to play a solid role as Carolina looks to turn their recent fortunes around.
