The Carolina Panthers trimmed their roster down to 53 on Tuesday after making several difficult decisions. Head coach Dave Canales and GM Dan Morgan wanted those decisions/conversations to be tough and that's exactly what they got following a strong preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills.

In addition to the cuts, the Panthers placed outside linebackers Amaré Barno and D.J. Wonnum on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list while leaving rookie running back Jonathon Brooks on the non-football injury list. Cornerback Dane Jackson and safety Sam Franklin Jr. are on injured reserve but are designated to return. Linebackers Tae Davis and Cam Gill were placed on IR.

Here are the 32 players the Panthers moved on from. All were waived unless noted otherwise.
