The Carolina Panthers have placed cornerback Dante Wesley (broken collarbone) on injured reserve and re-signed cornerback Curtis Deloatch to the 53-man roster.

   The Panthers will need to make another roster move by 4 p.m. Wednesday when Jeremy Bridges is reinstated to the roster. Bridges, who has completed a two-game suspension, talked to the media on Monday for the first time since his arrest.

   He said the team's two-game suspension was justified.

   "Yeah, you can't have off-field incidents without there being a suspension, especially in this day in age in the NFL with everybody doing the wrong thing," Bridges said. "Not everybody, but with a select few doing the wrong things. I don't want to put anybody in that category because I'm not one of those guys. Those are repeat offenders and what they're doing, that's not me. My situation happened. But for me, that's over."
