Texans officially move on from Arian Foster
Texans released RB Arian Foster.
Foster was healthy for only four games last year and has missed 23 games over the past three seasons. His release saves $6.625 million in cap space. Foster is entering his age-30 season and wasn't worth keeping around. His effectiveness is in question coming off a torn Achilles, but he should draw starting interest if healthy. With Alfred Blue and Jonathan Grimes as in-house options, the Texans will replace Foster through the draft or free agency.

Panthers release Charles Johnson, save $11M
Panthers released LE Charles Johnson.
The move saves $11 million, but leaves $4.02 million in dead money. Johnson had just one sack and missed seven games to injury last year. With Josh Norman's looming extension, the Panthers couldn't afford to keep him. Carolina will move forward with Kony Ealy as their top pass rusher. 29-year-old Johnson joins Mario Williams at the top of the defensive end market.
