Herron had a workout with the Seahawks on Tuesday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Herron had been with the Panthers since the start of the 2021 season but spent most of that time on the practice squad, seeing action in just one NFL game. He was cut from Carolina's practice squad with an injury settlement in October and is looking to latch on with a new team. The Seahawks placed Bryan Mone (knee) on IR on Tuesday, and Al Woods is dealing with a hamstring injury, so Seattle could be in need of healthy bodies at defensive tackle.

The Panthers cut Herron (undisclosed) from their practice squad with an injury settlement Thursday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Herron signed with Panthers' practice squad in September, but he was since let go with an injury settlement Thursday. Since 2019, the 6-foot-5 defensive end suited up for eight games (seven with Detroit, one with Carolina) and collected 12 tackles in that span. If he's able to prove good health, Herron will search elsewhere for another shot to play in the NFL.

Herron (undisclosed) was placed on the practice squad COVID-19 list Thursday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Herron has spent the entire season on the Panthers' practice squad, though he's battled an undisclosed injury and also served a two-game suspension. He'll now face another hurdle to retake the field, though he has yet to be active for a contest on the campaign.

The Panthers restored Herron (undisclosed) from practice-squad injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Herron completed a two-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances in early November, but he had remained on the practice-squad injured list until this week. The 27-year-old will now vie to make a return to NFL action. He played in four games for Detroit last season, posting five tackles (four solo) and one pass defensed.

Herron (undisclosed) had his suspension for performance-enhancing substances lifted Monday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Herron's suspension may be over, but he still remains on the Panthers' practice squad injured list. He saw time with the Lions in 2019 and 2020, but he's yet to suit up for the Panthers this season.

Herron (undisclosed) has been placed on the Panthers' practice squad injured reserve, Jonathan M. Alexander of The Charlotte Observer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move appears to have been at least partly made to make room for newly signed veteran receiver Willie Snead. Herron is likely to remain on the practice squad in some capacity unless multiple injuries strike the team's defensive line. The defensive end has a very small chance of making it on the field for the Panthers this season.

Herron agreed to a contract with the Panthers on Wednesday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.
EDGE Analysis
Herron was cut by the Panthers on May 10 to make room for one of the team's undrafted free-agent signings, but he didn't have to wait long to return to Carolina. The LSU product saw action in just four games for Detroit last season, recording five tackles (four solo) and a pass breakup. He'll look to latch on as a depth defensive lineman heading into the 2021 season.

The Panthers waived Herron on Monday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Herron was cut to make room for Carolina's most recent wave of UDFA signings. The Panthers have a deep defensive end room, but Herron should be able to latch on with another team in a reserve capacity this offseason.
