After going down by as much as 24 points in the second half of their matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, the Panthers made a run. But despite closing the gap to five and taking control of the rock with two minutes remaining, the furious comeback fell short in a 27-22 loss.

Former Spartans offensive lineman Nick Samac has been signed off the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad by the Carolina Panthers. The move was reported by ESPN's NFL insider Adam Schefter on Tuesday afternoon and confirmed by the Panthers in a press release.

Clowney is the second prominent ex-Panther who got picked up by an NFL team this week. Eddy Piñeiro, the team’s starting kicker last year, was signed by the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday.

For the second consecutive week, self-inflicted wounds proved costly to Dave Canales’s team. The Panthers dropped to 0-2 after a frustrating loss at Arizona.
