The Carolina Panthers announced they have waived DT Nick Thurman on Wednesday.
That leaves the team with four open roster spots for a bevy of players set to come off the injured lists.
Carolina also signed WR Cam Johnson and S Alex Cook to the practice squad.
Carolina’s practice squad now includes:
- OLB Kenny Dyson
- QB Jack Plummer
- OL Ja’Tyre Carter
- G Brandon Walton
- WR Praise Olatoke (International)
- RB Dillon Johnson
- WR Deven Thompkins
- DB Caleb Farley
- RB Mike Boone
- WR Dan Chisena
- C Andrew Raym
- DT T.J. Smith
- LB Chandler Wooten
- TE Stephen Sullivan
- WR Dax Milne
- S Alex Cook
- WR Cam Johnson
Thurman, 29, wound up signing on with the Texans as an undrafted free agent out of Houston back in 2018 but was among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason. He later signed a two-year deal with the Buccaneers in 2019 but was cut loose after a few weeks.
From there, Thurman signed on with the Patriots and bounced on and off their practice squad before being cut with an injury settlement. He went on to have stints with the Falcons and Jaguars before landing with the Panthers ahead of the 2023 season.
In 2024, Thurman has appeared in nine games for the Panthers and recorded 19 total tackles and one tackle for loss.
