The Carolina Panthers waive second-year wide receiver Jimmy Horn Jr. on Tuesday, and head coach Dave Canales addresses the decision when asked about it. Multiple reports say the move clears a spot on the roster.
Newsweek adds that the release is linked to the team making room for a new signing, and frames Canales’s comments around the idea that it is “not the end” for Horn. Yahoo Sports focuses on Canales’s explanation for why the team chose to waive Horn in the first place, without detailing additional specifics beyond the rationale for the roster adjustment.
Taken together, the coverage indicates the waiver is primarily procedural—carving out capacity for an incoming player—while Canales’s remarks suggest the team views Horn’s situation as temporary rather than final. The outlets differ mainly in emphasis: one highlights the coach’s “not the end” phrasing, while the other centers on the immediate reason for waiving Horn.
