CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — C.J. Henderson is eager for a new beginning and the Carolina Panthers are more than happy to give it to him.

He goes from a Jaguars team that was 1-18 during his tenure to an unbeaten Panthers team ranked No. 1 in defense. The Panthers made the bold move to get Henderson after losing this year’s first-round draft pick cornerback Jaycee Horn to a potentially season-ending broken foot.
