2025 Fantasy Outlook
Horn has proven to be one of the NFL's top playmakers since entering the league in 2021, signing a four-year, $100 million extension this offseason that made him the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL at the time. He posted career highs in total tackles (68) and pass defenses (13) last season, earning his first Pro Bowl selection. Now newly paid, Horn is expected to remain one of the league's premier defensive backs and carry solid IDP value. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $100 million contract with the Panthers in March of 2025.
Out for Saturday's preseason game
Horn (thumb) won't play in Saturday's preseason game against the Texans, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.
ANALYSIS
Horn injured his thumb in a car accident last Wednesday and required stitches. The team isn't worried about his availability for the regular season, but the standout cornerback won't play in Saturday's preseason game and probably won't be available for the Aug. 21 preseason finale against Pittsburgh, either.

2021
Horn has proved to be one of the top cornerbacks in the NFL since entering the league in 2021, but he's been riddled with injuries to begin his career, missing a whopping 29 games across three seasons as a pro. Despite Horn's durability issues, the Panthers picked up the former first-round pick's fifth-year option for 2025. The South Carolina product allowed just 28 receptions for 310 yards and no touchdowns during his healthiest campaign (13 games in 2022), and as long as he's on the field, he's expected to bolster a Carolina secondary that ranked bottom five in both passes defended and interceptions last season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might get contract extension
Horn is a player the Panthers would like to work out a contract extension with, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Carolina is expected to invest heavily in its defense this offseason, both in the draft and free agency, but locking up one of their top homegrown talents would be a big part of that plan, too. Horn has struggled with injuries since being drafted in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, but he recorded a career-high 68 tackles and 13 passes defended over 15 regular-season games in 2024. Signing him to a new deal this offseason could end up saving the Panthers in the long run, as the cornerback market figures to get reset soon by the likes of Derek Stingley and Sauce Gardner.
