Panthers | Xavier Legette working his way back from foot surgery Tue Feb 25, 01:59 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Xavier Legette (foot) underwent foot surgery after the team's season ended after he dealt with foot discomfort during the season.
| Footballguys view: Legette still has upside after a disappointing rookie season where he battled through a toe and wrist injury. He should be able to run soon, and a healthy Legette in training camp could help QB Bryce Young continue to thrive. |
Panthers | Trevin Wallace recovering from shoulder surgery Tue Feb 25, 01:30 PM

Carolina Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) remains without a timeline as he rehabs and recovers from the second anterior cruciate ligament tear he has suffered in as many years, according to general manager Dan Morgan.
| Footballguys view: Brooks is likely to miss most if not all the 2025 season. He waited to come back from initial knee injury suffered in college, then Brooks re-injured the same knee when he did start playing. It's likely the Panthers will be in the market for a change-of-pace back to work behind starter Chuba Hubbard. |

Panthers | Extension possible for Adam Thielen Sun Feb 9, 06:49 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen is expected to return to the Panthers next season and could be a candidate for a contract extension this offseason, according to ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler.
| Footballguys view: It was considered a possibility that Thielen would retire after the season, but he dispelled that at the Super Bowl. He was fantasy relevant with a revived Bryce Young down the stretch and is on the books for an affordable $6 million. The Panthers could get that number down with an extension, but don't have to because they are not in a bad cap situation. |

Panthers | Adam Thielen not expected to retire Fri Jan 31, 01:31 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen has yet to make a concrete decision about his playing future, but he told The Daily Mail on Friday, Jan. 31, that 'I have some more football in me.'
| Footballguys view: Thielen was very relevant in fantasy leagues down the stretch and could remain draftable if he plays next season. He has a $1.5 million roster bonus due in mid-March that should bring this situation into focus. The Panthers should be looking to add a wide receiver in draft or free agency whether Thielen comes back or not with two second-year receivers (Jalen Coker and Xavier Legette) the likely starters if Thielen retires. |

Carolina Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) underwent surgery last week to repair his anterior cruciate ligament injury. He is expected to miss the entire 2025 season.
| Footballguys view: There's a real chance we don't see Brooks play next season. Chuba Hubbard's ADP is probably too low. |
Panthers | Xavier Legette struggled with drops Fri Jan 10, 10:50 AM
Carolina Panthers WR Xavier Legette had eight drops during his rookie season.
| Footballguys view: Legette had an inconsistent rookie season in 2024. He's a deep ball target, and he can go up and snare contested catches. However, his route-running and concentration need to improve for him to move up the fantasy ranks. This past year, he's mostly been a 'what the heck' flex option. |

Panthers | Jalen Coker targeted seven times Sun Jan 5, 06:18 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Jalen Coker absorbed all seven of his targets for 62 yards in Week 18 against the Atlanta Falcons, and he also completed a pass for 19 yards.
| Footballguys view: Coker has been working his way up to a full-time role and showed a lot of promise as a developmental receiver for the Panthers. Look for him to push to start next season. He shouldn't be on the waiver wire in any dynasty league. |

Carolina Panthers RB Miles Sanders rushed 17 times for 66 yards and a touchdown in Week 18 against the Atlanta Falcons, while adding three receptions for 50 yards and a score on four targets.
| Footballguys view: Sanders will almost certainly be released with a $5.5 million price tag next season. He got a chance to return from injury and show the rest of the NFL what he can provide as backfield depth after Chuba Hubbard left him in the dust even though the Panthers seemed to think more of Sanders when they signed him to a four-year, $25 million deal last year. |

Carolina Panthers QB Bryce Young completed 25-of-34 passes for 251 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 18 against the Atlanta Falcons, while running five times for 24 yards and two touchdowns.
| Footballguys view: Young ended two teams playoff hopes in overtime this season in a good sign for the direction of his development. He's meshing with Dave Canales scheme and should have a lot more confidence to begin the season than he did this year. |

Panthers | Miles Sanders activated Sat Jan 4, 04:42 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Miles Sanders (ankle) was activated off injured reserve on Saturday, Jan. 4.
| Footballguys view: Sanders has been shut down since sustaining this injury in Week 10. He returns for the season finale, and Sanders could get a large workload. Without Chuba Hubbard, the Panthers were not able to do much on the ground last week with Raheem Blackshear and Mike Boone. Sanders might be the lead back, but his workload will depend on how that ankle is feeling in his first week back. |

Panthers | Questionable tag for Miles Sanders Fri Jan 3, 03:02 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Miles Sanders (ankle) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 3, but is listed as questionable for Week 18.
| Footballguys view: Sanders was activated from injured reserve after the Panthers running game couldn't get out of the driveway last week. It's the last week of the season, so the only logical explanation here was that the Panthers wanted Sanders' help in the season finale. He's a desperation play against an Atlanta team that is still alive in the playoff race, but needs a Tampa loss to New Orleans, so good luck with that. |
