The Carolina Panthers released two veteran players yesterday: LB Dan Morgan and OG Mike Wahle.
Morgan was a dynamic MLB and great IDP player, when healthy, which has been increasingly rare of late. He's suffered mightily from concussions and last season played in one game before tearing his Achilles tendon and getting replaced by rookie Jon Beason who performed admirably.

"A league source tells PFT that the Carolina Panthers are close to an agreement with wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad, who became an unrestricted free agent when the Bears released him last week."
According to ESPN, the San Francisco 49ers have reached a two-year contract worth $1.8 million with former Carolina running back DeShaun Foster. Foster will back-up Frank Gore.

He was money last year when he was healthy, which wasn't often enough for his owners. He's a real nice red-zone threat if you need receivers for scoring only leagues.
