Shocker: I'm told the Panthers have waived DE Everette Brown.
Per Caplan

Update:

In a big surprise, the Carolina Panthers have waived DE Everette Brown, thesidelineview.com has learned.

Brown, who was selected in the second round of the 2009 NFL Draft by the Panthers, appeared in 28 games and started three over his two years of play.

Brown never really developed into the player that the Panthers thought that they were getting based on his college tape. Personnel sources said that his lack of pass rush moves and size contributed to his struggles at the NFL level. But the talented defender clearly is capable of producing good sack numbers with further development with a coaching staff is willing to take a chance on him.

Brown, 24, will be subject to the waiver process since he’s not a vested veteran.

Brown has two years left on his contract and is set to earn $535,000 in base salary this season.

The Panthers gave up their first-round selection in the 2010 draft in order to select Brown.

      Entering year three, and there are reasons I would look into this more before offering a fourth or fifth. He was drafted in round 2 in 2023.  His rookie season, he played 14 games and was targeted 40 times.  Targeted 3 times a game, basically.  He caught 27 (67.5%).  A TE target/catch percentage should be higher than a WR--70-75% is considered good.  In 11 games this season, he was targeted 32 times and caught 21.  Again, about 3 targets per game, with a target catch percentage of 66%. They decided to draft a TE after his rookie season. This means they did not see him as a #1 TE. He has not been very healthy (9 missed games in 2 seasons--26%). Could he be better with a better QB?  Probably.  Having said all that, he is an excellent blocking TE.  I would trade a 6th for him, but only if I knew Thomas and Tremble were not coming back.

      the personal problems is something that would have to be checked out, but I'd do it.  That's how we got Greg Olsen.  He was a first round pick and we traded a 3rd for him a couple of years later.  He became our best TE ever
