Panthers Waive DE Charles Harris

The Carolina Panthers announced Monday that they’ve placed DE Charles Harris on waivers. 

Charles Harris

Harris is tied for the team lead in sacks, so this is a bit of a surprise. 

Harris, 29, is a former first-round pick by the Dolphins in the 2017 NFL Draft out of Missouri. He was in the final year of his four-year, $10,843,739 rookie contract when the Dolphins traded him to the Falcons.

Harris had his fifth-year option declined by the Falcons and earned a base salary of $1,943,692 in 2020. He signed a one-year, prove-it deal with the Lions for the 2021 season. 

Detroit brought him back on a two-year deal worth $14 million in March 2022 and he became an unrestricted free agent this past offseason before eventually joining the Panthers. 

In 2024, Harris has appeared in nine games for the Panthers and recorded 21 tackles and three sacks.
