Haarberg played at Nebraska from 2021 to 2025. He spent his first four years in the program as a quarterback before switching to tight end for the 2025 campaign.
The Nebraska native appeared in all 13 games last season with one start. He had eight catches for 52 yards and one touchdown. He gained nine yards on nine carries.
The Panthers were looking for a tight end after waiving Bryce Pierre earlier in the week. To make room for Haarberg on the roster, Carolina waived outside linebacker Jamil Muhammad.
