CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) The Carolina Panthers have waived wide receiver Jarrett Boykin and waived-injured former starting cornerback Melvin White.
The team also waived safety Robert Lester, defensive tackle Kenny Horsley and wide receiver De’Andre Presley, and waived-injured defensive tackle Micanor Regis on Tuesday. Also, wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin was placed on injured reserve.
Boykin was signed earlier this offseason as a free agent after spending three years with the Green Bay Packers. His best season came in 2013 when he caught 49 passes for 681 yards and three touchdowns, but was released by the Packers after catching just three passes in 2014.
White had started 17 games over the past two seasons for Carolina and had 83 tackles, 11 pass breakups and three interceptions.
Benjamin tore his ACL last month in practice.
