Eric Reid was released by the Panthers, becoming a free agent.
On February 11, 2019, Reid signed a three-year, $22 million contract extension with the Panthers. In week 5 against the
Jacksonville Jaguars, Reid forced a fumble on
Gardner Minshew II and recovered the ball in the 34-27 win. In week 9 against the
Tennessee Titans, Reid recorded a team high 11 tackles, sacked
Ryan Tannehill once, and forced a fumble on running back
Dion Lewis that was recovered by teammate
Donte Jackson in the 30–20 win. n week 12 against the
New Orleans Saints, Reid recorded a team high 15 tackles in the 34–31 loss.
Last year Reid had 130 tackles, 6 PDs, and 4 sacks. He would have been no. 2 in tackles, no. 3 in sacks and in the top 3 of most Cowboys defensive stats.
Cowboys should sign him in the second wave of free agency.
