Eric Rowe News
Free-agent defensive back Eric Rowe has signed with the Carolina Panthers. The former second round pick has found a new home after playing each of the last four seasons with the Miami Dolphins. Rowe has played both defensive back and safety throughout his career, so it's uncertain which he'll play in Carolina. Regardless, he'll be a nice addition in terms of depth to this defensive unit. Last season, Rowe recorded 56 tackles, two sacks, and two passes defended in 14 games (six starts) with Miami. This appears to be a smart and cheap one-year deal for Carolina.
Miami Dolphins defensive back Eric Rowe has the ability to play both safety and cornerback, but he will likely play a depth role this year with Jevon Holland and Brandon Jones ascending as the starting safeties early last season. If the Dolphins chose to trade Rowe, they would save $4.55 million and incur just $525,000 in dead money. If Rowe remains with Miami, they'll be paying him $5.075 million. The 29-year-old finished with 71 tackles (43 solo), four passes defensed and three forced fumbles in 17 games (four starts) last year in his third season with the Dolphins. Rowe was originally a second-round pick in 2015 by the Philadelphia Eagles out of Utah.
