Logs full practice Tuesday Mays (illness) was listed as a full participant in Tuesday's practice session, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Mays missed Sunday's win over Arizona due to an illness that wasn't reported until that morning. Carolina held a practice at "half-speed" Tuesday due to a scheduled Christmas off day Wednesday, and Mays' presence as a full participant seems to indicate that he's past the illness. If that's the case, he should be able to return to action Sunday versus Tampa Bay.

Back with Carolina Carolina signed Mays off the Giants' practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Mays is back with the Panthers, who drafted him in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. He appeared in 27 games (including seven starts) in his two years in Carolina, but he was waived at the end of training camp after failing to make the 53-man roster. Bringing Mays back gives the Panthers depth in the interior offensive line following the loss of Austin Corbett (biceps) for the rest of the regular season.

Let go by Panthers Mays (shoulder) was waived by Carolina on Wednesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Mays has appeared in 27 games (including seven starts) for the Panthers since being selected in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. He was pushing for a starting role in training camp, but he was sidelined for the Panthers' final two preseason games due to a shoulder sprain. Mays was not waived with an injury designation, indicating that his shoulder is fine. He'll look to catch on with another team in need of depth on the offensive line.
