CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers plan to waive quarterback Baker Mayfield on Monday, a league source confirmed.
Carolina (4-8) is still in contention in the weak NFC South and will go the rest of the season with Sam Darnold and PJ Walker at quarterback, with Darnold starting Sunday's road game against the Seattle Seahawks.
The decision to move on from Mayfield was a mutual agreement between the two sides after Mayfield asked for his release, a league source told ESPN.
Mayfield would have been inactive against Seattle had he remained on the roster this week.
