Panthers WR Jalen Coker will be active for Week 7

Wide receiver Jalen Coker (hamstring) will be active on Sunday so he will play for the first time this season. A roster move must be made Saturday as he comes off injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

Coker could (very) easily become the No. 2 option in the Panthers passing game with no one else stepping up behind Legette. It's better to take a wait-and-see approach as it pertains to this week, but he should be on radars moving forward.

Panthers list Hunter Renfrow as starting WR

Hunter Renfrow is listed as one of the starting wide receivers for the Panthers.

Related players: Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Jalen Coker, David Moore

Fantasy Impact:

Renfrow was cut from the team and then brought back this weekend after Coker moved to IR. It's quite a fall and rise situation for Renfrow, who could find himself as a fantasy producer, with the upside being Adam Thielen-like from last season.

Panthers bring back Hunter Renfrow, place Jalen Coker on IR

The Panthers signed WR Hunter Renfrow to their active roster Saturday.

Fantasy Impact:

Renfrow was among the final cuts for the Panthers as he competed for a role on the depth chart but was just squeezed out. The Panthers and general manager Dan Morgan had kept open the possibility of bringing Renfrow back in some capacity. Renfrow also essentially moved up a spot on the depth chart with the Panthers having since traded Adam Thielen to the Vikings and Jalen Coker suffering a quad injury Thursday and being placed on injured reserve. Renfrow likely mans tbe slot position at least until Coker returns, which he is expected to miss about 4-6 weeks.

Panthers trade WR Adam Thielen to Vikings in pick swap

Homecoming: Panthers and Vikings are finalizing a trade for WR Adam Thielen to return to Minnesota, sources tell ESPN.

The trade: Vikings get Thielen, a conditional 2026 seventh-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick.

Panthers get a 2026 fifth-round pick and a 2027 fourth-round pick.

Thielen starred for the Vikings from 2013-2022. Now he returns.

Fantasy Impact:

This is a good move to ease J.J. McCarthy into the league with Jordan Addison suspended for the first three games. Thielen is heading into his age-35 (!!) season and doesn't offer nearly the run-after-catch ability as he did in his heyday, but he can operate as a consistent option for the young QB. He's unlikely to hit double-digit targets as he did a couple times last year with JJ and T.J. Hockenson around, but he could be playable for desperate deep-league managers.

Back in Carolina, this helps clear the runway for Jalen Coker to operate as the Panthers' primary slot option after a pretty impressive rookie season for a UDFA. He's an interesting stash.
