Team news: Carolina Panthers

The Carolina Panthers have agreed to a contract with RB D'Onta Foreman.

Foreman did well when Derrick Henry was lost for the season in Tennessee. He now will look to continue his revival by competing with Hubbard for the back-up role in Carolina.

The Carolina Panthers signed TE Ian Thomas to a three-year contract with $16.5 million.

This seems like a bit of an overpay for a tight end who has failed to flourish. His career-high in receiving yards is 333, which was collected his rookie year (2018). Head coach Matt Rhule needs to decide if Thomas has any offensive future with the team drafting Tommy Tremble in 2021.

The Tennessee Titans have activated RB Derrick Henry (foot) from Injured Reserve.

Henry should be the lead back for the Titans, but his workload is very much unclear.

Panthers HC Matt Rhule told reporters Friday that WR Robby Anderson (quad) is questionable, but a game-time decision for Week 18.

It has been a disappointing season for Anderson but the Buccaneers secondary is still vulnerable enough to where Anderson can surprise if he plays.

The Carolina Panthers have placed WR Terrace Marshall Jr. on IR, ending his season.

A disappointing rookie campaign for Marshall, who will look to compete for the WR3 role in Carolina next season.

Panthers HC Matt Rhule told reporters Wednesday that Sam Darnold will start Week 17.

Darnold starting should not move the needle much, but the hope is that his return to starting can get WR D.J. Moore back on track.

After missing the last six weeks on IR, Darnold will return and play snaps for the struggling Carolina Panthers. Cam Newton will get the start but the Panthers want to take another look at the only quarterback they have under contract next season. With playoffs out of the question and head coach Matt Rhule on the hot seat, look for this to be the last week Cam Newton receives as a starter if Sunday doesn't go well.

The matchup is difficult for the backfield but Darnold could provide a bump in production for D.J. Moore and Robby Anderson. Anderson has had his statistics cut in half this season while Moore is approaching his third straight 1000 yard season.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore missed Thursday's practice with a hamstring injury.

Moore has now missed the first two practices of the week and is in jeopardy of missing Week 16 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He will need to practice in some fashion on Friday to have a chance of playing on Sunday and will still likely be listed as questionable if he does. There is a good chance that he will see his snaps reduced even if he is active, so fantasy managers may want to avoid this situation if possible. Moore is currently our 22nd ranked wide receiver for Week 16.

Panthers HC Matt Rhule told reporters Wednesday that WR D.J. Moore (hamstring) will be a game-time decision.

The Panthers offense is in shambles. If Moore does play, he is barely a flex consideration with the team's issues at quarterback.
