The Carolina Panthers made money moves on Wednesday.
According to ESPN's Field Yates, the team has created $10.7 million in salary cap space after restructuring the contracts of offensive tackle Taylor Moton and defensive lineman Shy Tuttle .
Moton, who is in his eighth NFL campaign, has now had his contract restructured in each of the past three offseasons. The former second-round pick has appeared in every one of Carolina's 115 regular-season games since being drafted in 2017 and hasn't missed a single offensive snap over the past four years.
Tuttle joined the Panthers last spring, when he signed a three-year, $19.5 million deal with the previous front office alignment headed by former general manager Scott Fitterer. He started all 17 games in 2023—recording 43 combined tackles, half a sack and five passes defensed.
Prior to the adjustments for Moton and Tuttle, the Panthers were approximately $4.5 million over the salary cap—the highest amount in the league. The moves should now put them back under the mark.
