Oher joined the Panthers as a free agent prior to the 2015 season, and he proceeded to ink a three-year extension in June 2016 following a fruitful first year in Carolina.
However, Oher was limited to just three appearances in 2016 after he suffered a concussion. As of March 24, Oher remained in the league's concussion protocol, according to the Charlotte Observer's Joseph Person.
