The Carolina Panthers agreed to sign wide receiver Muhsin "Moose" Muhammad III as an undrafted free agent, NFL Network reported on Sunday.

If that name sounds familiar, well, it should.

Muhsin Muhammad, his father, ranks second in the franchise's history in catches (696), receiving yards (9,255) and receiving touchdowns (50) while playing for the Panthers from 1996-2004. The two-time Pro Bowl selection also was the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award recipient for 1999.

The younger Muhammad totaled 81 catches for 1,163 yards and 12 touchdowns during four seasons with Texas A&M.

He joins a wide receiver room that includes Tetairoa McMillan, who was selected by Carolina with the eighth overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Arizona. The Panthers also picked Colorado receiver Jimmy Horn Jr. in the sixth round.
