The Panthers announced a series of transactions on Monday, including placing veteran cornerback Anthony Brown and quarterback Jake Luton on the injured list. The players will finish the season on the injured list unless the Panthers release them through compensation.
Luton, whose injury was not disclosed, signed on Aug. 5 because Andy Dalton was out with an injury. He spent time with the Panthers last summer and was on their practice squad in 2023 until he was signed by the Saints in late September. He returned to the practice squad in Carolina after being released by the Saints in October.
His only regular season appearances were three starts for the Jaguars during the 2020 season. Luton completed 54.5 percent of his passes and threw two touchdowns and six interceptions in three losses to Jacksonville.
Brown, who injured his thumb in the second preseason game, signed with the Panthers on Aug. 3. He spent seven seasons with the Cowboys after they drafted him in the sixth round in 2016 before playing two games with the 49ers last season.
The Panthers also announced that they have released wide receiver Tayvion Robinson due to injury and running back Dillon Johnson.
The team signed cornerbacks Chris Wilcox and Quandre Mosely after a practice on Monday.
Cornerback Dane Jackson will be out for about six weeks with a thigh injury, coach Dave Canales said.
Wilcox, 26, is a former seventh-round pick of the Buccaneers out of BYU. He has also spent time with the Colts, Cardinals, Steelers and Chargers.
Mosely, 25, played at Eastern Arizona and Kentucky and spent time with the Cowboys, Seahawks, Buccaneers and Patriots.
The Panthers also re-signed cornerback Willie Drew, wide receiver Sam Pinckney and running back Jaden Shirden, all of whom were with the team in training camp earlier this summer.
