Panthers waive rookie linebackers Juergens, Miller

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers have waived undrafted rookie linebackers Mike Juergens and Brit Miller.

The moves on Tuesday create half the roster space needed for Carolina's four remaining unsigned draft picks.

Juergens played at Wyoming and Miller at Illinois. They were signed days after the draft and participated in the offseason minicamp and optional workouts.

The Panthers must still sign second-round picks Everette Brown and Sherrod Martin, third-round choice Corvey Irvin and fifth-rounder Duke Robinson. Training camp begins Aug. 2.
