Len Pasquarelli reports that:
Wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson, released by the Dallas Cowboys last week, has reached agreement with the Carolina Panthers on a four-year contract.
Complete financial details were not immediately available, but it is believed that Johnson will receive a $5 million signing bonus.
Johnson, 33, visited with the New York Giants earlier this week and it is believed he turned down a contract proposal that would have paid him $3 million per year. He then visited on Thursday with the Panthers, one of the teams he cited as a possible landing spot when he was released.
In 10 seasons, Johnson has 744 catches for 9,756 yards and 60 touchdowns.
