Which late-round wide receivers could the Carolina Panthers potentially steal when they’re on the clock in the 2021 NFL Draft?

Losing Curtis Samuel was an inevitability for the Carolina Panthers once the 2021 salary-cap reduction was confirmed. They simply didn’t have enough capital to keep the wide receiver and Taylor Moton around, with rightful preference obviously going to the team’s best edge protector by a considerable margin.

The former Ohio State star opted to sign for the Washington Football Team for a reunion with ex-head coach Ron Rivera – but whether that works out or not remains to be seen.
