The Carolina Panthers have signed free agent safety Terrence Holt, a former N.C. State standout who becomes a leading candidate to start at free safety.

Contract details weren't available.

Holt (6-2, 208 pounds) started all 16 games at free safety for the Arizona Cardinals last season and led their defensive backs with 75 tackles. However, it was missed tackles and missed interception opportunities that caused him to fall out of favor with the Cardinals, who released him Feb. 21.
