BREAKING: Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers Plans to Sign a 2-Year Deal with the Panthers…
It was a quiet Tuesday morning in Charlotte when the news broke.
Jakobi Meyers, the Raiders’ reliable wideout, was packing his bags and heading east—leaving behind the silver and black for a fresh start in Carolina blue. The deal was short but sweet: two years, a chance to be the number one guy, and a new chapter with a franchise eager to make waves.
Panthers GM Dan Morgan had been quiet during the early free agency frenzy, but this? This was a statement. “We needed a dependable route-runner, a guy who can move the chains and mentor the young guys. Jakobi’s that guy,” he said during an impromptu press conference, grinning like a man who just pulled off a heist.
In Las Vegas, fans were split. Some thanked him for his steady hands and clutch catches. Others questioned the front office for letting him walk. But for Jakobi, it was never about the noise—it was about fit, opportunity, and respect.
“I’m just ready to get to work,” he told reporters while boarding a flight to North Carolina. “I’ve always been underrated. That’s fine. I’m used to it. But this time, I’m writing my own story.”
And so, with his cleats packed and a new jersey waiting, Jakobi Meyers began his next journey—not just to prove people wrong, but to prove himself right.
