Charlotte, NC (August 7, 2025) — A traffic incident involving Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn caused concern Wednesday morning after the standout defender was involved in a car wreck near Bank of America Stadium.

According to reports, the crash occurred as Horn was driving to the Panthers’ facility and happened near the intersection of Mint Street and Morehead Street in Uptown Charlotte. Emergency services were not needed for transport, as no one involved required hospitalization. Team medical staff evaluated Horn at the scene.

Though he did not participate in practice, Horn was present on the sidelines wearing street clothes and appeared to be in good spirits while interacting with teammates. The Panthers are currently holding joint practices with the Cleveland Browns ahead of their preseason opener on Friday.

Horn recently signed a record-breaking four-year, $100 million extension with Carolina and is expected to play a key role on a revamped defense this season.
