Panthers Will Not Use Franchise Tag on DeAngelo Williams


The Carolina Panthers will not use their franchise tag on running back DeAngelo Williams, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Either two-time Pro Bowl center Ryan Kalil or emerging pass-rushing defensive end Charles Johnson will receive the franchise tag.

To franchise Kalil would run the Panthers around $10.51 million, while Johnson's tender is projected to be worth slightly over $13 million for one season.

NFL teams have until 4pm ET on Wednesday to designate players with the franchise tag.
