Now that the Carolina Panthers have gotten down to their (very) initial 53-man roster, it’s time to potentially pick up some trimmings from elsewhere.
When the clock strikes 12 p.m. ET on Wednesday, it’ll mark the end of the waiver wire process. Players who were, obviously, waived in the league-wide cutdown on Tuesday can find new homes with other teams—whether that be on their active rosters or practice squads.
So, when can the Panthers put in a claim on a name they may want? Here’s the order, one identical to that of the 2022 NFL draft, of the waiver priority list:
1. Jacksonville Jaguars
2. Detroit Lions
3. Houston Texans
4. New York Jets
5. New York Giants
6. Carolina Panthers
7. Chicago Bears
8. Atlanta Falcons
9. Denver Broncos
10. Seattle Seahawks
11. Washington Commanders
12. Minnesota Vikings
13. Cleveland Browns
14. Baltimore Ravens
15. Miami Dolphins
16. Indianapolis Colts
17. Los Angeles Chargers
18. New Orleans Saints
19. Philadelphia Eagles
20. Pittsburgh Steelers
21. New England Patroits
22. Las Vegas Raiders
23. Arizona Cardinals
24. Dallas Cowboys
25. Buffalo Bills
26. Tennessee Titans
27. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
28. Green Bay Packers
29. San Francisco 49ers
30. Kansas City Chiefs
31. Cincinnati Bengals
32. Los Angeles Rams
Waiver claims will be announced one hour after the aforementioned deadline.
