The Carolina Panthers cut down their roster from 80 to 53 this weekend.

The NFL season is just a week away with the Panthers set to host the Las Vegas Raiders on Sept. 13 in a season that will be like no other.

According to Will Bryan of Panthers.com, the average age of the Carolina roster right now is 25.8, down from 26.1 last year.

Only 23 players on this 53 were on last year's initial 53.

On Sunday, the Panthers claimed three players off of waivers.

They have also signed 16 players to their practice squad.

Here is a look at the full 53-man roster, with three players on either IR on COVID/reserve list, and practice squad for the Panthers.
