Sam Pinckney Latest News
Cut by Carolina
The Panthers waived Pinckney on Tuesday. Pinckney signed with the Panthers back in May after going undrafted out of Coastal Carolina. He caught one pass for seven yards in the preseason finale, his lone exhibition appearance.
Back with Carolina
The Panthers signed Pinckney on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports. Pinckney was waived by the Panthers on July 26 after being signed as an undrafted free agent, but the team has now decided to bring the 24-year-old wideout back. In 2023, Pinckney caught 72 passes for 1,027 yards and eight touchdowns at Coastal Carolina, and he'll likely compete for a depth spot in the Panthers' WR room as the preseason progresses.
Done with Panthers
Carolina waived Pinckney on Friday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports. The Panthers made a series of free-agent signings Friday, and Pinckney became a casualty of their consequent need to free up space on the roster. He'll now search for another chance with a different team.
