Zack Sanchez: Let go with injury designation
Sanchez (quadriceps) was waived by the Panthers with an injury designation Monday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Sanchez is the Panthers' 2016 fifth-round pick who didn't appear in a game during the 2017 season due to injuries. His most recent issue was a quad strain, which is presumably the reason he was waived. Sanchez will revert to Carolina's injured reserve if he isn't claimed by another team on waivers.

Panthers' Zack Sanchez: Promoted to 53-man roster
Sanchez has been promoted to the Panthers' 53-man roster, the Charlotte Observer reports.
Sanchez was selected in the fifth round of this year's draft, but fell to the Panthers' practice squad following the preseason. However, the team's secondary was shredded to the tune of more than 500 passing yards last weekend, resulting in the release of cornerback Bene Benwikere and the rise of Sanchez to Carolina's active roster. Best suited for an inside position, Sanchez figures to occupy some of the same roles Benwikere filled prior to his release.

The Panthers opted to release Sanchez on Saturday.
The rookie is the first player drafted by general manager Dave Gettleman to not make the team even though he was in good health. Rookie corners James Bradberry and Dryl Worley were also drafted by the Panthers, and immediately assumed starting roles with the squad as it looked to replace star Josh Norman. Sanchez simply appears to be the odd man out.

Panthers' Zack Sanchez: Third CB selected by Carolina
The Panthers selected Sanchez in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, 141st overall.
Sanchez is a light corner (5-foot-11, 185 pounds) who doesn't press much and can give up some big plays, but he also has good ball skills for a corner and could prove a ballhawking threat, especially for a team with a pass rush as good as Carolina's.
