The Los Angeles Chargers released right guard Trai Turner on Friday, just one year after acquiring the former five-time Pro Bowler from Carolina. The move saved the Bolts $11.5 million in cap space.
The Panthers, on the other hand, are in dire need of offensive lineman this offseason.
Three of Carolina’s five starting offensive lineman from 2020 are unrestricted free agents. That’s left tackle Russell Okung and both guards, John Miller and Chris Reed. Michael Schofield is also set to hit the market.
Will Trai Turner sign in Carolina?
Former Panthers general manager Dave Gettleman took Turner in the third round of the 2014 draft and his choice paid immediate dividends.
