Panthers sign LB Isaiah Simmons to their practice squad
Our Summary
The Carolina Panthers have signed linebacker Isaiah Simmons to their practice squad. Simmons, originally drafted by the Arizona Cardinals as the eighth pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, joins the Panthers after being released by the Green Bay Packers in late August. Previously, Simmons had a stint with the New York Giants, where he recorded 21 tackles and a forced fumble last season. Throughout his career, Simmons has accumulated 329 tackles, 8.5 sacks, five interceptions, nine forced fumbles, and three fumble recoveries. The addition comes as the Panthers face depth challenges at linebacker due to injuries, including Claudin Cherelus's concussion and other injuries to Trevin Wallace and Christian Rozeboom.
