Robert McClain: Signs with Panthers

McClain signed with the Panthers on Tuesday.

With Bene Benwikere (arm) out for the season and Charles Tillman (knee) uncertain for Week 15, the Panthers are badly in need of depth at cornerback. McClain was originally selected by Carolina in the seventh round of the 2010 NFL Draft, but the bulk of his NFL experience came with the division-rival Falcons from 2012 to 2014. He could get a shot to compete for snaps in nickel packages.
