Yeah, I was a little surprised, too, that he was cut so early. As I said, I thought he had some good games since being drafted.
Here is some more information on the cut. If he makes waivers, they might resign him.
Panthers waive Matt Rhule era holdover to make room for Bryce Young’s Alabama teammate (msn.com)
The team announced it waived defensive tackle Bravvion Roy to make room for the signing of former Alabama defensive tackle LaBryan Ray. Roy, a 2020 sixth-round pick, was an awkward fit for the Panthers’ new 3-4 scheme under defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero. At 6-foot-1 and 330 pounds, Roy lacked the height and length to thrive at nose tackle in an odd front.
Roy played college football at Baylor under Rhule. The former Panthers head coach then drafted Roy in Carolina during his first draft at the helm. Roy played for the Panthers during all three of Rhule’s seasons in Carolina.
During his three-year tenure with the Panthers, Roy, 26, appeared in 45 games and produced 76 tackles, a sack and an interception. He will now be subject to waivers with one year remaining on his rookie contract.
Ray, listed as 6-foot-4 and 290 pounds, is likely to play defensive end for the Panthers. The 25-year-old defensive lineman played for Alabama from 2017 to 2021, and he was a teammate of rookie quarterback Bryce Young for two seasons with the Crimson Tide. He won two national championship games at Alabama, including one with Young in 2020.
Ray spent last summer with the New England Patriots. He played for the USFL’s Philadelphia Stars this past spring.
