The Carolina Panthers announced that they’ve placed outside linebacker Frankie Luvu on the COVID-19 list Saturday.
Luvu, 25, wound up going undrafted out of Washington State back in 2018 before securing a tryout with the Jets. He signed on with New York and has been on and off of their roster over the past few years.
The Jets re-signed Luvu to an exclusive rights contract in 2020. New York declined to tender him as a restricted free agent this offseason and he later signed on with the Panthers.
In 2021, Luvu has appeared in 12 games for the Panthers and recorded 22 tackles, 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble, three recoveries and one pass deflection.
