Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Unproductive in loss Sunday
Rotowire
Tremble hauled in one catch for eight yards during Sunday's 43-13 loss to the Buccaneers.
Tremble had two touchdowns in the 25-14 win over the Eagles in Week 6. However, it was a different story in Week 7, with the 26-year-old catching just one pass for the second time this season. While Tremble could find the end zone again at some point moving forward, he likely won't be consistent enough to be considered anything other than a desperation fantasy option, especially while Darren Waller is on the field.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Two TDs in win over Philly
Rotowire
Tremble caught all four targets for 46 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 25-14 win over the Eagles.
Tremble played 54 snaps to Mitchell Evans' 43 and Darren Waller's 36, and it was Tremble who ran the most routes of the trio. His touchdowns were both of the red-zone variety, scoring from 12 and 19 yards. The tight end entered Sunday with 11 catches for 82 yards on 15 targets, so he's not worth chasing in fantasy ahead of next Sunday's date with the Bucs.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Nursing rib injury
Rotowire
Tremble (ribs) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Tremble played a reduced role at tight end in Week 4 versus Detroit before the Panthers' bye in Week 5, and it seems plausible that whatever rib injury he's dealing with now could also have been the reason for that. In any case, he'll probably have to practice in full Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Four catches in SNF win
Rotowire
Tremble caught all four targets for 12 yards in Sunday night's win over the Lions.
Involved in a three-man committee at tight end, Tremble's 38 snaps trailed both Mitchell Evans (46) and Darren Waller (40) at the position. He also ran fewer routes than both. Tremble's 11 grabs this season have produced 82 scoreless yards on 15 targets. He has no fantasy appeal.

Rotowire
Tremble caught three of his five targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 59-37 loss to the Bears.
Tremble played 34 offensive snaps, which equated to just under 56 percent of the Panthers' total offensive plays. The tight end also contributed 11 special-teams snaps in the losing effort, showing some versatility in what was a productive offensive day for the Panthers overall.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Faces competition with signing of Waller
Rotowire
Tremble could face competition atop the depth chart at tight end with Carolina slated to sign Darren Waller to a one-year contract, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.
Regarded as a strong blocker, Tremble projects to enter his sixth season in Carolina as the team's starter, but he could end up ceding more work on obvious passing downs to Waller, who ended a one-year retirement in 2025 and delivered an impressive 24-283-6 receiving line on 34 targets over just six games with the Dolphins. Waller's receiving output was on par with Tremble's over his full 17-game slate with Carolina, as the latter contributed 27 catches for 249 yards and two touchdowns on 37 targets. The modest catch and yardage totals were all career highs for Tremble, who now appears likely to take a step back statistically in 2026 if Waller emerges as Carolina's top pass-catching tight end.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Just one catch in Week 16
Rotowire
Tremble caught his only target for six yards during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Buccaneers.
It appears Tremble's role in Carolina's offense has shrunk over the past four games, as he's caught just four of seven targets for 21 yards during that span. The 25-year-old has appeared in all 15 of the Panthers' contests this year, tallying 205 receiving yards and one touchdown on 23 receptions. He'll likely have minimal fantasy value in the Week 17 matchup against the Seahawks.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Two catches vs. New Orleans
Rotowire
Tremble caught two of four targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints.
Tremble received just four total targets in the Panthers' previous four games, but he matched that total during Sunday's loss. The increase in volume didn't translate to production, as finished the divisional matchup with the fourth-most receiving yards on the team. Tremble has now caught 22 of 31 targets for 199 yards and a touchdown across 14 appearances this season. He's expected to remain the one of the Panthers' top tight ends in the Week 16 matchup against the Buccaneers.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Minimal role in win
Rotowire
Tremble caught one of two targets for two yards in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Rams.
The 25-year-old and Ja'Tavion Sanders have combined for two receptions on three targets for eight yards over the Panthers' last two games, suggesting rookie Mitchell Evans may be emerging as the team's top tight end. Tremble has now caught 20 of 27 targets for 186 yards and a touchdown across 13 appearances this season, and he likely will carry minimal fantasy value once Carolina returns from bye in the Week 15 matchup against the Saints.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Blanks in Week 12
Rotowire
Tremble was not targeted during Monday night's 20-9 loss to the 49ers.
The Notre Dame product has now gone without a reception in three of the Panthers' last four games, suggesting he's clearly behind Ja'Tavion Sanders in the team's tight-end corps. Tremble has appeared in all 12 of Carolina's games this season, catching 19 of 25 targets for 184 yards and a touchdown. He'll likely play another depth role in the Week 13 matchup against the Rams.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Huge catch in OT win
Rotowire
Tremble caught one of two targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Falcons.
Tremble made a major impact during overtime, catching a short pass from Bryce Young and turning it into a 54-yard gain to set up the game-winning field goal. He was one of five Panthers to top 50 receiving yards in Sunday's win and has now tallied 19 receptions for 184 yards and one touchdown across 11 contests. Although he led the Panthers' tight-end corps with 42 offensive snaps played, Ja'Tavion Sanders (4-22-0) remains the team's top receiving option at tight end. Expect Tremble to continue contributing primarily as a blocker in the Week 12 matchup against the 49ers.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Continues to underwhelm Sunday
Rotowire
Tremble was not targeted during Sunday's 17-7 loss to the Saints.
The 25-year-old was Carolina's only active tight end who failed to draw a target in Sunday's loss, while Ja'Tavion Sanders caught all five of his targets for 32 yards and Mitchell Evans couldn't catch his lone look. Over the Panthers last four games, Tremble has caught just two of three targets for four yards, cementing his status as a blocker rather than a receiving threat. He'll likely maintain a similar role in the Week 11 matchup against the Falcons.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Struggles in Week 7
Rotowire
Tremble caught his only target for no yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
The 25-year-old returned to his reserve role with Ja'Tavion Sanders active in the Week 7 win. In the four games that Sanders has played in this season, Tremble has caught all seven of his targets for 38 yards. He's expected to continue operating as a depth option in Carolina's tight-end corps ahead of the Week 8 matchup against the Bills.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Efficient in Week 6
Rotowire
Tremble caught all four of his targets for 39 yards during Sunday's 30-27 win over the Cowboys.
The Notre Dame product served as the Panthers' No. 1 tight end for the third consecutive week while Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) remained out with an injury. Tremble capitalized on the opportunity, finishing with the second-most receiving yards on the team during Sunday's win. While Sanders has been sidelined, Tremble has managed to catch 10 of his 14 targets for 88 yards and one touchdown. Although he's impressed with a larger offensive role, Sanders is likely to return for Carolina's Week 7 matchup against the Jets, which is expected to make Tremble a reserve option once again.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Week 5 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Tremble stepped up in the first game without Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) in Week 4 at New England with five catches for 42 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. Sanders is likely out again in Week 5 against Miami, and the Dolphins have struggled with tight ends so far this season. Jalen Coker (quadriceps) could make his season debut in Week 5, but Tremble is worth adding as a streaming tight end while Sanders is out for 1 percent of your remaining FAB.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Quiet in Week 3
Rotowire
Tremble caught both of his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 30-0 win over the Falcons.
The Notre Dame product played a season-high 33 offensive snaps in Sunday's win after Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) exited early due to an injury. Tremble made the most of his limited opportunities, catching each of his targets and finishing second on the Panthers in receiving yards in Week 3. If Sanders is sidelined for the Panthers' Week 4 matchup against the Patriots, Tremble will likely step in and serve as one of the team's top receiving options.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Catches three passes vs. Cardinals
Rotowire
Tremble caught all three of his targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Cardinals.
Tremble played as the Panthers' No. 2 tight end for the second consecutive week, logging 35 offensive snaps compared to Ja'Tavion Sanders' 56 on Sunday. Sanders also played his best game as a pro, catching seven of nine targets for 54 yards, so it appears likely that Tremble will remain Carolina's top reserve tight end as the season progresses. Still, the Notre Dame product was relatively productive despite playing a limited role in Week 2, and he'll look to build on that effort in Week 3 against the Falcons.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Likely backing up Sanders
Rotowire
Tremble caught his only target for two yards in Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Jaguars.
Tremble was dealing with a back injury prior to the Panthers' Week 1 loss and played just 29 offensive snaps -- 10 fewer than second-year tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders. Sanders also outpaced him in targets (three to one) and receptions (two to one), making it seem as if Tremble will serve as Carolina's No. 2 tight end this season. Game script likely played a role in Sanders' increased playing time, as Carolina's large deficit in the fourth quarter favored his pass-catching skill set. Unless Carolina's defense improves in a Week 2 matchup against the Cardinals, Tremble figures to serve as the top backup.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Cleared for Week 1
Rotowire
Tremble (back) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's season opener at Jacksonville.
The Panthers activated Tremble from the PUP list Aug. 21, giving him two-and-a-half weeks to ramp up for Week 1. He's ready and may even be a nominal starter, but Ja'Tavion Sanders figures to run more routes and get more playing time in passing situations.
