The Carolina Panthers announced they have agreed to send linebacker Denzel Perryman and a 2022 seventh-round draft pick to the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for a 2022 sixth-round selection.
The deal is pending a physical, per Darin Gantt of panthers.com.
Perryman played for the San Diego and Los Angeles Chargers from 2015-2020 before signing a two-year, $6 million contract with the Panthers during free agency.
Perryman had 48 tackles, a pair of quarterback hits and a sack in 13 games (six starts) for the Chargers in 2020.
As Alaina Getzenberg of the Charlotte Observer wrote, Perryman had suffered a hip flexor as well as a foot injury after a teammate stepped on him during practice.
