    Matt Gay to make the roster

    A great 52-yard field goal and solid kicking have all but solidified his role. I have reported since before the NFL Draft that he was in the driver’s seat for the kickers’ lone spot on the 53-man roster, and that remains accurate.

    Haynes King to land on the practice squad

    the Panthers may have no choice but to put him on the practice squad, where another NFL team will almost surely poach him and roster him, leaving him forever as a Panthers "what if."

    Kyle McCord will be that third quarterback if he continues making the type of big-time throws he delivered on Wednesday at training camp. ... That left McCord as the third and final quarterback on the roster and made him the leader in the clubhouse to grab a spot on the practice squad. The job will be his if he keeps trending in this direction.
