Panthers trim roster, put two on IR
Football Betting Lines
08/31/2010 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Carolina Panthers reduced their roster to the maximum 75 on Tuesday, in part by placing wide receiver Wallace Wright and defensive end Hilee Taylor on injured reserve.
Wide receivers Dexter Jackson and Oliver Young were waived, while oft-injured linebacker Thomas Davis was transferred from the active/physically unable to perform list to the reserve/PUP list while he recovers from knee surgery.
Wallace had spent the last four years with the Jets and was expected to impact special teams play as well as compete for time on offense.
Davis, meanwhile, is recovering from his second surgery for a torn ACL in as many years. The five-year veteran saw time in seven games last season before the injury and registered 61 tackles, two interceptions and five passes defensed.
His move to the reserve/PUP list means he'll be sidelined for the first six weeks of the season, then can return to practice for the next three weeks before a determination on his roster status must be made.
