Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Struggles again in Week 2
Rotowire
Sanders caught both of his targets for eight yards during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
Despite his limited volume, Sanders out-snapped Tommy Tremble (24 to 22) in the latter's first week back from a hamstring injury. The Panthers may have been trying to ease Tremble back in, but it's promising that Sanders continued to see significant playing time. Regardless of how much the rookie is on the field, he'll struggle to provide fantasy relevance unless Carolina's offense improves -- the unit has scored just 6.5 points per game across the first two weeks.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Quiet in debut
Rotowire
Sanders caught his only target for four yards during Sunday's 47-10 loss to the Saints.
The rookie tight end out of Texas saw increased opportunities with Ian Thomas (calf) and Tommy Tremble (hamstring) both missing Sunday's contest. Sanders played 43 offensive snaps, 23 more than any other tight end for Carolina, but that workload didn't lead to much production, as Sanders struggled along with the rest of the Panthers' offense. He caught a four-yard pass in the first quarter, but wasn't targeted for the rest of Sunday's affair.
