With the roster deadline looming on August 30th, GM Dan Morgan could make a splash by signing a veteran linebacker like Bobby Wagner or Kenneth Murray — just as he did with Darren Waller at tight end. The final preseason game against Houston will be a pivotal moment as fans watch whether the Panthers lock in their linebacker future.
