CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Kicker MacKenzie Hoambrecker was among nine players released Saturday by the Carolina Panthers.

Also cut were defensive end Kevin Carberry, cornerback DaShane Dennis, receivers Lynzell Jackson, Terrance Metcalf and Daniel Smith, linebacker Corey Jenkins and tackles Albert Toeaina and Quasim Mitchell.

The moves reduce the roster to 80 players. The team must make five more cuts by Tuesday afternoon's deadline. Carolina must reach the regular-season limit of 53 players by Sept. 2.

Ah, kinda thought so. Many thanks. Guess he's not quite as good as daddy or big brother, though, huh?

question is, did he get invited to camp because of talent or name ?

if it was talent then he should hold his head high

maybe if he works hard another year he will make a squad next year
