Backup quarterback Brett Basanez was on the bubble, but Matt Moore’s injury paired with a 6-for-11, 106-yard, one-touchdown game probably cemented a roster spot for him.

Samie Parker, signed Tuesday and looking for a roster spot as a return man in Ryne Robinson’s stead, was not impressive.

But with depth concerns in the short term at receiver he might still make it.

LeBrandon Toefield is at risk of getting cut after capping a poor preseason with 18 yards on 13 carries.

Even though John Kasay is locked in as the field goal kicker, Rhys Lloyd has won a roster spot as the kickoff specialist.

There’s a logjam at defensive line where the Panthers like end Hilee Taylor and tackle Nick Hayden but will probably have to choose between the two for the final lineman.
