As the Carolina Panthers are making a late-season push for their first playoff appearance since 2017, they've decided to sign a player who has helped them get there in the past.

On Monday, the Panthers signed cornerback Josh Norman to the team's practice squad. Norman was recruited to work out with the team on Monday after starting cornerback Jaycee Horn suffered a wrist injury in Saturday's win over the Detroit Lions.

Panthers fans should be familiar with Norman. He spent the first four seasons of his career (2012-2015) with Carolina and was a big part of the defense that pushed the team to Super Bowl 50 in the 2015 season.
