SPARTANBURG, S.C. – The Panthers have made a series of roster moves that began with cornerback Chris Houston's decision to retire.
Carolina signed cornerback T. J. Heath and defensive tackle Kenny Horsley prior to the team's return to the practice field Wednesday following a day off. The Panthers also waived kicker Matt Wile.
Houston, a second-round draft pick in 2007, signed with the Panthers in June after being out of the league in 2014. Wile, an undrafted rookie from Michigan, saw his second stint with Carolina end after less than a week.
Heath has bounced around the NFL since being signed as an undrafted rookie by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2011.
