With the victory, Derek Carr is now 5-0 in his career against the Panthers with a 69.28 completion percentage and eight touchdowns against three interceptions.

Horn was in coverage on Rashid Shaheed’s 59-yard touchdown that opened the scoring early in the first quarter. The 2021 first-round pick had one tackle in Carolina’s season-opening loss.

Horn has been one of football’s best shutdown corners since entering the league in 2021. Unfortunately, injuries limited the South Carolina product to 22 total games over his first three seasons, including nine games combined in 2021 and 2023.

If Carolina is to build off last year’s disastrous 2-15 season, they’ll need Horn to stay healthy, and for the rest of the young defense to step up.
