The Carolina Panthers made a pair of roster moves ahead of tomorrow’s matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

As announced on Saturday afternoon, defensive lineman LaBryan Ray has been activated from injured reserve. Ray, who missed the first four games of the season due to a high-ankle sprain, was listed as questionable for the Week 5 contest.

Ray has appeared in 33 games for the Panthers over the last two seasons. In 2024, he posted 41 combined tackles and a sack with a career-high nine starts.

Carolina also, in a standard elevation, called up inside linebacker Krys Barnes from the practice squad. The sixth-year veteran amassed 30 career starts between his stops with the Green Bay Packers (2020 to 2022) and the Arizona Cardinals (2023 to 2024).

Barnes played in all three of the Panthers’ preseason games this past summer. He recorded seven tackles over a total of 85 defensive snaps.
