Panthers cut a depth running back with minimal impact on their roster construction. Media coverage suggests routine roster management rather than significant news. Johnson clearing waivers and reverting to injured reserve signals limited NFL value. Fans view this as inconsequential depth shuffling during the offseason. Carolina likely pursues free-agent upgrades or draft picks at running back.
