Panthers cut top tackler Barrow to trim cap space
Carolina Panthers released Mike Barrow, the leading tackler in 1998 and 1999, as part of a cost-cutting move after signing free agent Chuck Smith. Barrow, a seven year veteran under a 19 million contract, started every game for Carolina and set franchise tackle records in 1998. The team saved about 2.9 million against the 2000 salary cap of 62.2 million and considered Hannibal Navies, Kory Minor, and Dont'a Jones as potential replacements.
