Panthers Re-Sign Two Restricted Free Agents

The Carolina Panthers have re-signed restricted free agent safety Nate Salley and linebacker James Anderson to one-year deals worth $1.01 million apiece.

Both players were offered the low tender by Carolina and did not receive offers from other teams. Clubs would have had to surrender a third-round draft pick to sign Anderson and a fourth-rounder to get Salley.

Salley, 25, is entering his 4th year in the league, all with Carolina. He played his college ball at Ohio State and is a core special teams player with the Panthers.

Anderson, 25, is also entering his 4th season. Another core special teams player, Anderson also has 3 career starts at linebacker where he has tallied 41 tackles and 2 sacks.
