Roster Shake-Up: Panthers Revamp Roster With Four Changes, Wonnum Back in Mix
According to Joe Person , the Panthers made four roster moves ahead of Week 10, including activating OLB D.J. Wonnum and S Jordan Fuller from injured reserve.
Additionally, Carolina is elevating CB Caleb Farley and WR Deven Thompkins from the practice squad.
Wonnum, 27, was drafted by the Vikings in the fourth round out of South Carolina in the 2020 NFL Draft. He finished the final year of a four-year, $4.04 million rookie contract and became an unrestricted free agent.
He suffered a partially torn quad and finished the season on injured reserve in Minnesota but signed a two-year deal with the Panthers.
In 2023, Wonnum appeared in 15 games for the Vikings and recorded 62 total tackles, seven tackles for loss, eight sacks, one fumble recovery returned for a touchdown, and six pass deflections.
