Brown signed with the Panthers on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 2021 fourth-round pick from Texas A&M will join the Panthers after spending the first four years of his career with the Rams. Brown had a career year in 2024, recording 44 total tackles and one pass defended across 17 regular-season appearances (16 starts). He's the third free-agent defender the Panthers have added Monday, joining safety Tre'von Moehrig and defensive end Pat Jones. Brown will look to fortify a Carolina defensive line that allowed the most yards per carry (5.2) in the NFL in 2024.

Brown recorded 44 tackles and one pass defended across 17 games with the Rams in 2024.
EDGE Analysis
Brown played out the final year of his rookie contract and has progressively seen his role expand each year as a pro. In 2024, he stayed fully healthy for the first time while recording a career-high in snaps (455) and tackles. Brown is a traditional run-stuffing lineman who doesn't offer much as a pass rusher, but he still should be a relatively popular option for teams looking to fortify their defensive line this offseason.

Brown (shoulder) is active for Sunday's NFC divisional-round game against the Eagles, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brown was deemed questionable to play after sitting out practice all week with a shoulder injury which he sustained during Monday's wild-card win against Minnesota. The 324-pounder has played a significant role on the interior of the Rams' defensive front this year, tallying a career-high 44 tackles over 17 regular-season games. Brown should once again start between defensive ends Braden Fiske and Kobie Turner.

Brown (shoulder) is questionable to suit up Sunday in the NFC divisional round against Philadelphia, but he's expected to play, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brown injured his shoulder in Monday's wild-card win over Minnesota and didn't practice at all this week. However, Rams head coach Sean McVay said Friday that he expects the fourth-year nose tackle to play against the Eagles. If Brown is unable to suit up, though, Neville Gallimore would likely be asked to log more than his usual allotment of defensive snaps.

Brown (shoulder) was listed as a DNP for Wednesday's walkthrough, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brown played just 13 defensive snaps and finished with one tackle during the Rams' NFC wild-card win over the Vikings on Monday due to a shoulder injury he suffered in the first half. The Rams will hold their first official practice Thursday, and his participation in that session will provide some clarity on his chances of playing in Sunday's NFC divisional-round clash against the Eagles.

EDGE Analysis
Brown departed in the first half, and it's uncertain if he'll be able to return. He had recorded one tackle prior to his exit. Neville Gallimore will likely take on more defensive snaps for as long as Brown remains sidelined.
