The Carolina Panthers had a clear agenda on Tuesday.
As noted by Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston yesterday afternoon, the team worked out four cornerbacks— Kyron Brown , A.J. Green (no, not that one), Azizi Hearn and Shemar Jean-Charles . The Panthers would later announce the signing of Hearn, who was added to the practice squad along with defensive lineman DeShawn Williams .
An Oceanside, Calif. native, Hearn began his collegiate career at the University of Arizona in 2017. He'd go on to play in 12 games for the Wildcats during the 2018 campaign—recording 26 combined tackles and one pass defensed.
The 6-foot-1, 204-pounder would later transfer to the University of Wyoming for the 2019, 2020 and 2021 campaigns, and then to UCLA for 2022. He appeared in 45 contests over those four years.
Hearn proceeded to hit the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the Las Vegas Raiders in 2023. After he was released at the end of the summer, he signed on to the New England Patriots ' practice squad for the season.
