CHARLOTTE — The Panthers took advantage of the first day of camp without a full practice to shuffle the roster a bit.
They signed four players on Friday, addressing a few areas of positional need.
The team signed outside linebacker Kemoko Turay, tight end Feleipe Franks, cornerback Kiondre Thomas, and wide receiver Devin Carter.

Turay, a former second-round pick of the Colts, has 12.0 sacks in parts of five seasons. The 29-year-old had a career-best 5.5 sacks for the Colts in 13 games in 2021 and has spent parts of the last two seasons and offseasons with the 49ers and Falcons.
The Panthers have worked out a number of players at that position (among others) in recent days as they look for options at a thin spot. With D.J. Wonnum still on the active/physically unable to perform list, they lack experienced options opposite Jadeveon Clowney.

The 26-year-old Franks was with the Falcons the last three seasons. A former quarterback at Florida, he was also once drafted by the Boston Red Sox. He was converted to tight end in 2022. The Panthers needed some depth there, with Tommy Tremble dealing with a hamstring issue that kept him off the field Thursday.
The 26-year-old Thomas spent the spring in the UFL, and has spent time with the Browns, Chargers and Packers.
Carter's a rookie who played at West Virginia and NC State.
To make room for them on the roster, they placed veteran wide receiver Cam Sims on the reserve/physically unable to perform list and waived safety Clayton Isbell, offensive tackle Christian Duffie, and wide receiver Sam Pinckney.
The team had a pair of walk-throughs Friday in advance of the Back Together Saturday practice at Bank of America Stadium. For tickets and more information about the event, click here.
