Former Panthers WR Terrace Marshall Jr. to sign with 49ers
After three seasons with the Carolina Panthers, Terrace Marshall Jr. appears to be headed out west.
According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, the fourth-year wideout is expected to sign with the San Francisco 49ers after clearing waivers on Wednesday. He was cut yesterday afternoon by the Panthers, as they finalized their initial 53-man roster without their former second-round pick.
Carolina took Marshall Jr. with the 59th overall selection of the 2021 NFL draft. The talented Louisiana State University product, however, did not realize his potential with the organization—amassing 64 receptions for 767 yards and only one touchdown over 36 games.
Marshall Jr. had himself a pretty solid summer in Charlotte—catching the attention of many, including second-year quarterback Bryce Young.
“That’s someone who works extremely hard, cares, is always the last person on the field,” Young said of his now-former receiver on Tuesday. “Obviously, the business of it—you never know where people end up, what’s going on. But that’s someone I believe in tremendously.”
Godspeed, Terrace, and say hello to Christian for us!
