The Facts:
The Carolina Panthers on Wednesday released Hackett, running back Nick Goings, wide receiver D.J. Hackett and offensive lineman Jeremy Bridges. Reported by The Sports Ticker

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Hackett lasted just one season with the Panthers. Expected to be a key contributor after signing as a free agent, he managed just 13 receptions for 181 yards in an injury-plagued season. He spent his three previous seasons with Seattle. Goings has seen minimal playing time the past two seasons, rushing just 20 times for 62 yards. His best season came in 2004, when he churned out five 100-yard games after the team’s top three running backs went on injured reserve.
