The Carolina Panthers re-signed kicker Graham Gano to a four-year contract, the team announced Tuesday.
The Panthers were reportedly set to use the $4.94-million franchise tag on the veteran before the deal was announced.
Gano, Carolina's placekicker for the past six seasons, hit an NFL-best and team-record 96.7 percent (29-of-30) of his field-goal attempts in 2017 en route to his first Pro Bowl selection.
He has an 85.3 field-goal conversion percentage (151-of-177) since joining the team.
