The move comes a little more than a year after Reid signed a three-year deal with the Panthers.
Apparently, Eric does not fit in with head coach Matt Rhule’s vision of the team.
Joe Kenn even weighed in on Reid being released from the Panthers.
He stated that it was “Very Surprising” news after Reid played so hard for the team.
Joe posted this about Rhule’s choice to cute Reid:
[A] guy [like Eric Reid] played his butt off for us. Plus, he handled himself like a professional each and every day.

In addition to Reid, the Panthers have also made a trade with the Chargers:
The Chargers and Panthers agreed to swap tackle Russell Okung for guard Trai Turner almost two weeks ago and that left time for them to take care of physicals
