Carolina continued reconstructing its offensive line on Tuesday with a four-year, $53 million contract agreement with guard Damien Lewis.

Multiple outlets reported Lewis received $26.2 million in guarantees to pair with another free agent, Robert Hunt, who agreed to a five-year, $100 million contract with the Panthers on Monday. Hunt played guard and tackle for the Miami Dolphins.

Lewis, who turns 27 later this month, was a third-round pick of the Seahawks from LSU in 2020 and has 61 starts in four seasons.

Panthers head coach Dave Canales was on the Seattle coaching staff each of Lewis' first three years in the NFL.

—The Eagles agreed to terms on a one-year deal with offensive lineman Matt Hennessy on Tuesday.

Hennessy, 26, can play multiple interior offensive line positions. He started 22 total games for the Atlanta Falcons from 2020-22 before sitting out last season with a knee injury.

Atlanta selected Hennessy in the third round out of Philadelphia's Temple University in 2020.

—Bills defensive tackle DaQuan Jones re-signed with Buffalo on Tuesday.

He had 16 tackles and 2.5 sacks in seven regular-season starts last season.
