The Carolina Panthers have reached injury settlements with four players, releasing them from injured reserve and the team roster.

Wide receiver Brenton Bersin, safety LJ McCray and offensive linemen Chris Scott and Gino Gradkowski have each received payouts as part of an injury settlement, according to an announcement by the Panthers organization.

An undrafted free agent out of Wofford in 2014, Bersin caught 24 passes for the Panthers the last three seasons. He was placed on IR during final cuts.

McCray signed with Carolina this offseason and looked to have a chance to make the team before being injured.

Scott and Gradkowski were potential offensive line depth that became expendable after the emergence of Tyler Larsen and Greg Van Roten. Scott spent the past four seasons with the Panthers. Gradkowski signed with Carolina for the 2016 season and spent last year as the backup center.
