As the NFL regular season approaches, the Carolina Panthers have parted ways with linebacker K'Lavon Chaisson, just days before their game against the New Orleans Saints.

Chaisson, a former first-round draft pick, struggled to make an impact during his time with the Panthers, tallying only 73 tackles and five sacks in his NFL career.

With the Panthers yet to replace him on their roster, teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers may consider him for a backup outside linebacker position.
