Isaiah Simmons Signs with Panthers Practice Squad for Depth

Linebacker Isaiah Simmons has signed with the Panthers' practice squad on Tuesday, providing much-needed depth at the position due to recent injuries to Claudin Cherelus, Trevin Wallace, and Christian Rozeboom. Simmons, who was released by the Packers in late August, recorded 21 tackles and a forced fumble with the Giants last season. His career totals include 329 tackles, 8.5 sacks, five interceptions, nine forced fumbles, and three fumble recoveries.
