Panthers' Kamu Grugier-Hill: Tending to groin injury
Grugier-Hill (groin) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
It's not clear when Grugier-Hill picked up the groin issue, but it puts his availability for Week 18 in danger either way. He'll probably need to log a full practice Thursday or Friday in order to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Panthers' Kamu Grugier-Hill: Leads team in tackles
Grugier-Hill recorded a team-high 10 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 37-27 loss to the Seahawks.
While Grugier-Hill was only on the field for 46 snaps (65 percent), he made his presence felt. He is seeing an expanded role due to Shaq Thompson (lower leg) being sidelined for the season. The veteran will look to stay hot in Week 4 when the Panthers host the Vikings.

Panthers' Kamu Grugier-Hill: Set for expanded role
Hill looks set to step into a starting role for the Panthers with Shaq Thompson (lower leg) expected to miss the rest of the season, David Newton of ESPN reports.
Grugier-Hill replaced Thompson during Monday night's 20-17 loss to the Saints, handling 58 defensive snaps while racking up six tackles (five solo) and one sack. The development puts Grugier-Hill on the IDP fantasy radar heading into a Week 3 matchup against the Seahawks, but the Panthers' defense as a whole could struggle to replace both Thompson and Jaycee Horn (hamstring), who landed on short-term IR after sustaining an injury Week 1.

Cardinals' Kamu Grugier-Hill: Heads to the desert
The Cardinals signed Grugier-Hill on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Grugier-Hill will now join Zaven Collins and Isaiah Simmons in Arizona's linebacker corps following Tuesday's transaction. The 28-year-old requested a release from the Texans in late October, after he played just 18 defensive snaps during the Week 7 loss to the Raiders due to the team's recent activation of rookie third-round pick Christian Harris. Grugier-Hill paced Houston in tackles in 2021, and he's thus far racked up 40 tackles and six starts this season.

Kamu Grugier-Hill: Cut by Houston
The Texans granted Grugier-Hill his release Wednesday, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
After the Texans activated rookie third-round draft pick Christian Harris for Week 7, he and Grugier-Hill platooned at weakside linebacker during a loss to the Raiders. Harris (38 snaps, 68 percent) had the greater share of snaps, and Grugier-Hill (18, 32 percent) may have seen the writing on the wall for his role being reduced over the second half of the season. The seven-year veteran requested his release, and the team quickly granted it. He was Houston's leading tackler in 2021 and started all six of the team's games this season while piling up 40 stops and one pass breakup. The 28-year-old's high-volume tackling gave him some utility in IDP leagues, and while he shouldn't struggle to find a home elsewhere, he may struggle to find the sort of playing time he enjoyed in Houston prior to Week 7.
