Rashaan Melvin Joining Panthers Active Roster
3 years agoThe Carolina Panthers are signing cornerback Rashaan Melvin to their active roster from the practice squad on Monday, according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. Melvin played 29 defensive snaps and had four tackles (three solo) in the Thursday night win over the Houston Texans in Week 3. The Panthers are in need of cornerback depth with first-rounder Jaycee Horn (foot) expected to miss several months, and Carolina also traded for former first-rounder C.J. Henderson on Monday. Melvin has six tackles (four solo) in two games played for the Panthers this year and should continue to provide depth for the Panthers secondary with Horn sidelined.
