Panthers sign CB Josh Hawkins to practice squad Authentic Taylor Moton Jersey , waive DE Kiante Anderson The Carolina Panthers made a move this morning to add cornerback Josh Hawkins to their practice squad, and waived defensive end Kiante Anderson in a corresponding move, according to Jourdan Rodrigue.Hawkins had been with the Packers since they signed him as an undrafted free agent in 2016 until he was cut over the weekend.Here’s a brief summary of Hawkins’ time in Green Bay from our friends at Acme Packing Company:Hawkins joins Cole Luke as the second cornerback on the Panthers practice squad. With only five cornerbacks on the active roster, it makes sense to stash a few guys in the practice squad in case injuries happen. With the experience that Hawkins has playing in Green Bay http://www.carolinapanthersteamonline.com/wes-horton-jersey , there’s a chance that he will replace Lorenzo Doss—someone with fewer games played in his career—on the active roster despite Doss’ hall of fame potential. There’s also a chance that Hawkins is only here a week. Either way, we’ll let you know if anything develops from this story. Stay tuned.How much of an impact will DJ Moore have in 2018? The Panthers selected DJ Moore in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft and their fan base immediately lost its mind. They are finally supporting Cam Newton. He is the next Steve Smith. It has been so long since they drafted a No. 1 receiver. Smitty said on the TV that he has a Ph.D. in route running. We all, apparently, forgot that most receivers don’t have a huge impact their rookie season. Let’s not compare Moore to the likes of Kelvin Benjamin until the rookie has proven himself to be that unreliable.2018 has been a slow start for Moore. He made a lot of noise during training camp but was hardly anywhere to be seen in the preseason and didn’t record a catch until Week 2 of the regular season. That catch being a 51-yard Authentic Trai Turner Jersey , highlight reel reception for a touchdown was nice, but it was still only one catch in two weeks. Either Moore isn’t ready to see the field with any frequency or the coaching staff is upholding the long standing Panthers’ tradition of mismanaging talent.Either way, the Panthers have made all of the appropriate noises this week about getting Moore involved in a heavier role. Here are the opinions of the Cat Scratch Reader staff of what that role will end up looking like, statistically Womens Torrey Smith Jersey , by the end of the season.Brian BeversluisDaniel BeltonJon DeLongEvan LeekleyErik SommersEverybody seems agreed that getting the rookie more involved isn’t going to mean taking over for Devin Funchess as Cam Newton’s No. 1 receiver. You know what? Let’s be honest. They don’t think he is going to take over for Christian McCaffrey as Newton’s top receiver.I think averaging about three receptions per game is a perfectly optimistic expectation for Moore’s season. It’s also telling that nobody saw fit to mention his impact as a runner. The Panthers want to get the ball to Moore in space. We’ll see how successful they are in making that space behind the line of scrimmage.
