General manager Dan Morgan continues to address the defensive line.
Ahead of Saturday's practice, the Carolina Panthers announced it signed defensive lineman Jayden Peevy, who spent part of the 2023 season on the practice team.
Aaron Wilson, a television reporter with KPRC 2 Houston, first reported the roster move.
Peevy practiced on Saturday. After spending part of the 2023 campaign on the Panthers' practice squad, he brings some familiarity to the team.
Peevy was in the Cleveland Browns' camp for a stretch of the 2023 season.
There was no corresponding move since the roster was at 89 after waiver-claim Caden Sterns was released Thursday. Rookie defensive end Jaden Crumedy left Thursday's game with an ankle injury and did not return.
Peevy played his college ball at Texas A&M University from 2017 to 2021. He tallied 138 total tackles (20.0 for a loss), 7.5 sacks, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, one interception and seven passes defended.
He originally broke into the NFL as an undrafted free agent.
