Panthers' Nick Scott: Remaining in Carolina
Scott is set to sign a one-year contract with the Panthers, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Scott started all 17 regular-season games for Carolina last year, recording a career-best 111 tackles along with three defensed passes (including an interception). He also played every defensive snap during the team's wild-card loss to the Rams and racked up nine stops. Scott should reprise his starting role at safety alongside Tre'von Moehrig in 2026.

Panthers' Rasheed Walker: Signs deal with Carolina
The Panthers signed Walker to a one-year contract Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Walker has started 48 games across the last three regular seasons and operated as the Packers' left tackle during the 2025 campaign, playing all 1,057 of his offensive snaps at the position. He gives the Panthers a capable option should Ikem Ekwonu (knee) not be recovered from a torn patellar tendon that he suffered in Carolina's wild-card loss to the Rams in January.

The 27-year-old has appeared in 27 regular-season games (six starts) for the Panthers over the last two seasons, recording 60 total tackles and one pass defensed.

Panthers' John Metchie: Reunites with Bryce Young
Metchie is signing a one-year deal with Carolina, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
A 2022 second-round pick, Metchie spent time with three different teams during the length of his rookie contract after missing the 2022 season to recover from cancer. He'll now reunite with college teammate Bryce Young, likely competing for a depth role at wide receiver behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker.

Mitchell has agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Carolina, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Mitchell will continue to provide depth in a tight end room that also houses Ja'Tavion Sanders (lower leg), Tommy Tremble and Mitchell Evans. Across five regular-season games in 2025, Mitchell secured all three of his targets for 28 yards.

Panthers' Stone Forsythe: Links with Panthers
Forsythe agreed to terms on a contract with the Panthers on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Forsythe has shown flexibility on the offensive line over his five-year career, playing multiple positions and holding his own. He started 13 of 17 games for the Raiders last season. The 28-year-old will need to battle for a full-time starting role in Carolina.

Panthers' Luke Fortner: Lands with Carolina
Fortner agreed to terms Tuesday on a one-year contract with the Panthers worth $4.75 million, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Fortner started 44 regular-season games over four years with the Jaguars, although he started just 10 games over the past two. The 2022 third-round pick should be favored to win the starting center job in Carolina.

Panthers' Popo Aumavae: Waived by Carolina
The Panthers waived Aumavae (Achilles) on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Aumavae spent the 2025 season on injured reserve with an Achilles tear and will now be waived after initially signing as an undrafted free agent in 2024. The defensive tackle has spent his NFL career thus far bouncing around the Panthers' reserve lists. Aumavae will become an unrestricted free agent if he clears waivers.

Panthers' David Moore: Re-signing with Carolina
Moore agreed to terms Tuesday on a contract to remain with the Panthers, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Moore caught just one pass across four regular-season appearances in 2025. The depth wide receiver will likely reprise his role as an emergency option in 2026. Moore's deal is likely another one-year deal around the league minimum, with additional money tied to incentives.

Panthers' Isaiah Simmons: Staying with Carolina
The Panthers signed Simmons to a contract Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Simmons signed a one-year deal with the Panthers in late December, and the team seems to want to keep the former Clemson linebacker around. It is likely another one-year deal for Simmons, who was primarily a special-teams player down the stretch of the 2025 regular season. The 27-year-old played just one defensive snap last season, something that may change with a full offseason to immerse himself in the Panthers' defensive scheme.

Panthers' A'Shawn Robinson: Released by Carolina
The Panthers released Robinson on Tuesday.
Robinson had one year remaining on his contract, but his diminished production in 2025 is likely the reason he will be released early. The 30-year-old defensive tackle will now be able to seek a new contract once free agency starts Wednesday. Robinson is a durable, time-tested veteran who could strengthen the depth of many teams' interior defensive units.

Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Inks new deal with Carolina
Ray re-signed with the Panthers on Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
The 28-year-old from Alabama has operated in a depth role on the Panthers' defensive line over the last two seasons, tallying 54 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, across 29 regular-season appearances. He's expected to continue playing behind Derrick Brown, Tershawn Wharton (hamstring) and Bobby Brown during the 2026 season.

Panthers' Thomas Incoom: Returning to Carolina
Incoom re-signed with the Panthers on Tuesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Although Incoom played just 25 defensive snaps across the Panthers' 17 regular-season games in 2025, he led the team with 16 total tackles on special teams. Following his new deal, the Central Michigan product is expected to remain one of Carolina's most impactful special-team assets during the 2026 season.

Panthers' Akayleb Evans: Staying in Carolina
Evans is set to sign a one-year deal with the Panthers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
The 26-year-old corner appeared in 16 regular-season games for the Panthers last season, recording 12 total tackles while playing a key role on special teams (153 snaps). After re-signing with Carolina on Monday, Evans is expected to maintain a similar role ahead of the 2026 season.
