Summary

The Carolina Panthers have placed linebacker Claudin Cherelus on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury sustained in Week 2, meaning he will miss at least four games. Cherelus had one tackle and played 36 special teams snaps in the season's first two weeks. To fill the roster spot, the team signed linebacker Maema Njongmeta off the practice squad.
