CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Check veteran wide receiver off the wish list of Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera.
Rivera at the NFL combine in Indianapolis said he wanted to add an experienced leader to the receiver room, and the deal to get 29-year-old Torrey Smith from Philadelphia accomplished that.
That the Panthers traded cornerback Daryl Worley, a third-round pick out of West Virginia in 2016, shouldn't come as a huge surprise. Worley actually was benched against the Eagles last season after the second series of a home loss.
