Not a single member of the Carolina Panthers was selected to one of The Associated Press' All-Pro teams for the fifth straight year. However, a handful of their players received a little recognition.
Four panthers receive at least one vote from the national panel of 50 media members – cornerback Jaycee Horn (one), running back/kick returner Raheem Blackshear (nine), linebacker/special teamer Jon Rhattigan (one) and long snapper JJ Jansen (two).
Horn played a career-best 15 games in 2024 while recording highs in combined tackles (68), tackles for loss (five), sacks (2.0) and passes defensed (13). The fourth-year defenseman and former eighth overall draft pick was selected to his first Pro Bowl a week ago.
Blackshear had the most kickoffs (31) and second-most return yardage (791) in the NFL this season. He averaged 25.5 yards per attempt.
Rhattigan played 369 of his 370 total snaps on special teams. He made 12 tackles.
Jansen finished his 16th professional season with his 260th consecutive game. He is the seventh player in league history to appear in at least 260 games for a team.
