The three players Carolina claimed off waivers are wide receiver Brandon Zylstra, safety Natrell Jamerson and wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud.

Zylstra spent the 2018 season with Minnesota, playing in all 16 games while tallying one reception for 23 yards, four punt returns for 26 yards and one kick return for 15 yards. Prior to his season with the Vikings, Zylstra played two years with the Edmonton Eskimos of the CFL, where he was named the league's most outstanding rookie in 2016. He played collegiately at Concordia-Moorhead (D-III).

Jamerson comes to Carolina after spending his rookie season in 2018 with New Orleans, Houston and Green Bay. He recorded five tackles and one pass defensed in 12 games played last year (10 with Houston and two with Green Bay). He originally entered the NFL as a fifth-round draft pick by New Orleans out of Wisconsin.
