Panthers reportedly adding Da'Norris Searcy to secondary with 2-year deal

The Carolina Panthers are finalizing a 2-year contract with defensive back Da'Norris Searcy, formerly of the Tennessee Titans, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

What It Means:

Searcy started 33 games for the Titans before falling out of favor last year behind All-Pro Kevin Byard and free-agent pickup Johnathan Cyprien. The 29-year-old safety will likely replace Kurt Coleman in the Panthers' defensive backfield opposite Mike Adams.

Searcy recorded 23 tackles (12 solo) with 2 pass deflections and 1 interception last season.
