Wegher was released by the Rams on Thursday, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wegher has failed to find a long-term landing spot since going undrafted two years ago. He previously spent the 2016 preseason with the Panthers but failed to make the final roster cut.

Wegher was among the Panthers' final roster cuts Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Wegher's release was perhaps the Panthers' most noteworthy from a fantasy perspective, as he was competing for a spot in the team's running back rotation. However, after totaling merely 83 rushing yards on 32 preseason carries, Wegher didn't do enough to make Carolina's regular season roster. Upon his release, the Panthers will carry starter Jonathan Stewart, Cameron Artis-Payne, Fozzy Whittaker and fullback Mike Tolbert as their backfield options.

Wegner rushed eight times for 24 yards in Saturday's preseason win over the Titans.

EDGE Analysis

Wegner once again led the Panthers in carries Saturday, but also failed to find much room to run after gaining just 13 yards on 10 carries in Carolina's preseason opener. Although Wegner made a tackle on special teams, he failed to capitalize on teammate Fozzy Whittaker not getting any carries Saturday, and should have to continue to fight for a roster spot in the Panthers' two remaining preseason tilts.

Wegher rushed 10 times for 13 yards and caught one pass for four yards in Thursday's preseason opener against the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

Wegher, who is vying for the Panthers' No. 3 running back job, led Carolina in carries Thursday. Unfortunately, he couldn't find much room to run when he got the ball, but neither did Fozzy Whittaker, who finished with three carries for zero yards. Obviously, Wegher will look to improve on his performance when the Panthers suit up next Saturday against the Titans.

Wegher made the Panthers' final roster, the Charlotte Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

An undrafted free agent out of Iowa, Wegher impressed during the preseason, but he'll likely just be fourth on the depth chart to start the year. He may not be active on gamedays.
