Carolina trimmed 18 players to reach the initial 53-man roster, with most cuts headed to waivers and a path to the Panthers’ practice squad if unclaimed. Carolina still needs 19 more spots by Tuesday’s 4 p.m. ET deadline as it finalizes depth, while one vested veteran, Matthew Wright, was released. The list features Plummer, Perkins, Bailey, Lynch-Adams, Hudson, George, Luther, Dafney, Losoya, Kandra, Weaver, Windmon, Broughton, Dotson, Swilling, Henderson, Gifford, and Wright.
