Jadeveon Clowney Fantasy Stats

Senior NFL insider Josina Anderson reports that former first overall pick and current free-agent pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney is in Dallas on Wednesday to meet with the Cowboys, per a league source. Clowney was released by the Panthers four months ago, and at 32 years old is likely looking to land a short-term deal with a contending team like the Cowboys. Last season with the Panthers, he recorded 5.5 sacks. Clowney has had a solid, albeit somewhat underwhelming, NFL career, accumulating 58 sacks, 108 tackles for loss, and 15 forced fumbles across 11 NFL seasons. The Cowboys recently traded All-Pro Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers, so it stands to reason that they may be looking for some defensive help.

The Carolina Panthers released edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney on Thursday, sources tell ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Clowney will hit the free-agent market after spending just one season with the Panthers in 2024. In 14 starts for them last year, the 32-year-old veteran pass-rusher had 46 tackles (24 solo), 5.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss, 11 QB hits and four pass breakups. The move to cut Clowney this offseason will free up $7.78 million in salary cap space this year for the Panthers. The three-time Pro Bowler was the first overall pick by the Houston Texans in 2014 out of South Carolina. Clowney does have 58 career sacks in 11 NFL seasons over 140 regular-season games played, but he's battled various injuries and has never posted a double-digit sack campaign. He should latch on elsewhere but probably won't be anything more than a rotational pass-rusher.

Carolina Panthers defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (knee, illness) is officially active for Sunday's Week 16 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. The veteran defender had been listed as questionable but was widely expected to play after logging a full practice on Friday. Clowney has appeared in 11 games this season, amassing 36 tackles and 3.5 sacks. This week, he'll be tasked with slowing down a Cardinals offense centered around Kyler Murray and James Conner.

Carolina Panthers linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (knee) and cornerback Jaycee Horn (groin) are active for Week 15 against the Dallas Cowboys. Both players had been listed as questionable. Clowney closed out this week's practices with a pair of full sessions while Horn was consistently a limited participant. Clowney, 31, has been productive through 10 games this season, registering 33 tackles and 3.5 sacks. Meanwhile, Horn has appeared in all 13 contests, tallying 62 tackles, one sack, and one interception. Having both playmakers available is great news for the Panthers as they enter Sunday's winnable game against Dallas.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Carolina Panthers linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (knee) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's match against the Philadelphia Eagles. The 31-year-old was initially expected to play even after carrying a questionable designation following Friday's practice. However, the veteran linebacker was unable to pass clearance and will set his sights on returning in Week 15 to face the Dallas Cowboys. Since Week 8, Clowney has tallied 4.2 tackles per game (2.4 solo) with nine total assists and 2.5 total sacks. With Clowney sidelined, fantasy managers in IDP formats should expect DJ Johnson and Cam Gill to see an uptick in opportunities. The Carolina defense should not be considered as a potential streaming option as they will face a high-flying Philadelphia offense that is led by star running back Saquon Barkley, who could very well set a new single season rushing record.

According to Joe Person of The Athletic, Carolina Panthers defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (knee) is expected to suit up this weekend against the Philadelphia Eagles. Despite not practicing this week and carrying a "questionable" designation, head coach Dave Canales expects the 31-year-old to be on the field. Over his past five contests, Clowney has tallied 21 tackles (12 solo) with nine assists, 2.5 sacks, and one pass deflection. If Clowney can suit up this weekend, fantasy managers in IDP formats should expect him to see his typical starting workload.

Carolina Panthers defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. At the time of his departure, he had contributed three tackles, bringing his season total up to 12. The 31-year-old has played slightly less than half of the Panthers' defensive snaps this year but provided a steady, veteran presence on the defensive line. DJ Johnson is expected to earn additional pass-rushing opportunities until Clowney is healthy enough to return.

Free-agent edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney is signing a two-year, $24 million contract with the Carolina Panthers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 2014 No. 1 overall pick spent last season with the Baltimore Ravens, and it was one of the best campaigns of his career. He tied a career-high with 9.5 sacks and did not miss a game for the first time since 2017. The 31-year-old still has plenty of ability, but his surroundings in Carolina won't be as strong as they were with the Ravens. The South Carolina native is now closer to home, and he'll look to help the struggling franchise accelerate its rebuild in 2024.

The New York Jets and free-agent pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney have remained in constant contact after the two sides met, with one source describing the Jets as "highly motivated" to try and secure a deal with Clowney. In addition to the Jets, both the Carolina Panthers and Baltimore Ravens remain interested in Clowney as well after his 9.5-sack season in Baltimore in 2023. The 31-year-old former first overall pick by the Houston Texans in 2014 out of South Carolina is in high demand on the free-agent market after producing one of his best seasons as a professional last year. In addition to his 9.5 sacks, he had 43 tackles (24 solo), nine tackles for loss, 19 QB hits, five passes defended, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 17 regular-season games (15 starts). It proved that Clowney still has it in him, but the three-time Pro Bowler's injury history isn't going away.

Free-agent edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney is visiting with the New York Jets on Wednesday, according to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team. The former No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft enjoyed one of the best seasons of his career with the Baltimore Ravens in 2023. He tied a career-high with nine sacks and was tied for fourth among all edge defenders in pass rush win rate (25%). Overall, Clowney has compiled 363 tackles, 52.5 sacks, 15 forced fumbles, one interception, and 76 run-stuffs in 126 games over ten seasons. The Jets already have one of the best defenses in the NFL, and the potential addition of Clowney would make it even more dangerous.
