Panthers sign former Buccaneers DE, Baylor CB, waive 2 players

The Carolina Panthers have signed two more free agents today, according to a release on the official team website.

Carolina added to the defensive backs room by signing cornerback Derrek Thomas, who played for head coach Matt Rhule at both Temple and Baylor. After his college career was over he went undrafted, then he spent time with the Seahawks and Steelers in the offseason but did he not play in 2019.

The Panthers also added to the defensive line again, signing former Buccaneers defensive end DaVonte Lambert. He played 11 games for Tampa in 2016 but hasn’t been on the field in the regular season since.

In a pair of corresponding moves, the team waived kicker Elliott Fry and defensive back Dominique Hatfield.

As of yet, the Panthers have not announced the reported signing of former Chargers offensive lineman Michael Schofield, who we are projecting to be the new starter at left guard.
