The Carolina Panthers have made a friend out of a recent foe.
As announced on Wednesday, the Panthers claimed safety D'Anthony Bell off waivers from the Seattle Seahawks. Bell recorded 19 total snaps in Seattle's 27-10 win over Carolina this past Sunday.

Bell—who split his collegiate career between Albany State, Iowa Central Community College, Butler Community College and the University of West Florida—broke into the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the Cleveland Browns in 2022. He'd appear in 50 games over three seasons in Cleveland, where he amassed 61 combined tackles, two interceptions and a forced fumble.
Seattle signed Bell in the spring of 2025. Before being waived on Tuesday, the 29-year-old made two starts over 14 contests for the Seahawks this season.
To make room for Bell, the Panthers placed tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders on injured reserve. Sanders sustained a broken fibula in the Week 17 defeat to the Seahawks.
