Panthers announce initial 53-man roster following cut deadline: Here’s who made the cut

The Panthers have constructed the initial 53-man roster of the Frank Reich era. Following a mass exodus on the waiver wire, the Panthers reached the league-mandated roster limit on Tuesday. While there are likely to be a few changes made over the next couple of days through various roster moves (waiver wire claims will be made Wednesday at noon), Carolina has established the bulk of its depth chart after a grueling training camp at Wofford College and an informative preseason slate.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young has time to move in the pocket as the offensive line provides protection during first quarter action against the Detroit Lions on Friday, August 25, 2023 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC.
