Terrace Marshall Jr. Joins 49ers Practice Squad

The Carolina Panthers have released wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. as part of their roster cuts ahead of the new NFL season, following three underwhelming seasons since being drafted in the second round in 2021. During his time with the Panthers, Marshall recorded only 64 receptions for 767 yards and one touchdown, leading the team to decide on a fresh direction with their roster. He has since signed with the San Francisco 49ers' practice squad, where he will need to compete for a spot in a strong wide receiver group. The Panthers also cut rookie running back Jonathon Brooks, who is sidelined due to an ACL injury, and tight end Jordan Matthews, highlighting the team's roster adjustments. This move reflects concerns about the previous management under former general manager Scott Fitterer, whose draft decisions have come under scrutiny for lack of impactful selections. As Marshall seeks a new beginning, speculation arises about a potential reunion with his former LSU teammate Justin Jefferson in Minnesota, where he could have a chance to revitalize his career.
