The Carolina Panthers are set to sign veteran edge rusher Charles Harris following the news of Pro Bowl defensive lineman Derrick Brown's potential season-ending meniscus injury. Harris, who previously excelled in a similar defensive scheme, is expected to bolster the Panthers' pass rush, which struggled in their season opener. Brown is currently seeking a second opinion on his injury, while the team made room for Harris by releasing tight end Feleipe Franks.
