Panthers place outside linebacker Nic Scourton on injured reserve following knee injury
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Panthers placed Nic Scouton on injured reserve on Friday, one day after the second-year outside linebacker tore the ACL in his right knee during the first practice of training camp.
A second-round pick in 2025, Scourton tied for the team lead with five sacks last season, the third most by a rookie in team history.
Carolina signed outside linebacker Cam Gill as a potential replacement. The team also signed offensive lineman Derrell Bailey and waived guard Joshua Gray.
Gill played for Carolina in 2024. He spent last season with the UFL’s Louisville Kings, registering the most sacks in a season in league history (10) to earn Defensive Player of the Year honors. He has appeared in 50 career NFL games with Tampa Bay and Carolina, recording 38 tackles, 2 1/2 sacks and one forced fumble.
Bailey is an undrafted free agent who played last season at Georgia State.
