Tommy Tremble Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

With Panthers TE Ja’Tavion Sanders missing the game against the Patriots with a high-ankle sprain, TE Tommy Tremble was able to shine. He secured a 5-42-1 stat line tying for a team-high eight targets. Tremble only played 46.8% of snaps through the first three weeks, but played 89% of snaps with Bryce Young in this game.

Panthers TE Ja’Tavion Sanders (ankle) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Patriots. He’s expected to miss multiple weeks with a high-ankle sprain. Tommy Tremble figures to step in as Carolina’s lead TE, but rookie TE Mitchell Evans will also likely be involved. Avoid the situation in Week 4 fantasy lineups.

Panthers TE Ja'Tavion Sanders is expected to miss "multiple weeks" with a high-ankle sprain suffered in the Week 3 win over the Falcons, according to The Athletic's Joe Person. Sanders has been running as Carolina's lead TE, tallying 11 catches for 92 scoreless yards through three games. He's garnered just 12.3% of the team's targets, though, and is now only worth keeping stashed in the deepest of fantasy leagues. Sanders' absence will leave the Panthers' TE room to Tommy Tremble and rookie Mitchell Evans. Neither is worth adding off waiver wires right now.

According to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer, second-year TE Ja’Tavion Sanders has been “one of the brightest stars in camp” for the Carolina Panthers.

Panthers TE Ja'Tavion Sanders (neck) is active for today’s game vs. the Eagles. We’re expecting the rookie to split playing time with TE Tommy Tremble, leaving both guys as unreliable fantasy plays.

Panthers TE Ja'Tavion Sanders (neck) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Eagles. He put in a full practice on Friday, though, and HC Dave Canales said afterward that Sanders is expected to play. But the rookie figures to share work with TE Tommy Tremble against Philadelphia’s seventh-ranked TE defense. Sanders isn’t a recommended Week 14 fantasy play.

Panthers TE Ja'Tavion Sanders (neck) practiced in a red non-contact jersey on Wednesday. He was officially limited. Sanders seemingly has a chance to return for this weekend's game vs. the Eagles but would likely split work with TE Tommy Tremble.

Panthers TE Ja’Tavion Sanders (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He’s avoided IR for now, but we haven’t heard a timeline for his return. Sanders’ absence leaves Tommy Tremble as Carolina’s top TE, but he’d be a desperation fantasy start.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (back) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Giants. That keeps TE Ja’Tavion Sanders in play as a fringe fantasy starter. The rookie has posted 5-49-0, 6-61-0, and 4-87-0 lines in his last three games without Tremble.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (back) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Giants. He practiced all week, including full workouts on Wednesday and Friday, so it’d be surprising if he didn’t play. Tremble has remained ahead of TE Ja’Tavion Sanders in playing time, so Sanders can’t be trusted in Week 10 fantasy lineups if Tremble ends up active.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Giants. Tremble has continued to play ahead of TE Ja'Tavion Sanders when healthy, despite the latter's impressive rookie campaign. Sanders can't be trusted in Week 10 fantasy lineups if Tremble is active.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (back) is inactive for today's game vs. the Saints. That puts rookie TE Ja'Tavion Sanders back in play as a deep-league spot starter. The rookie totaled 13 targets, 11 catches, and 110 yards across Weeks 6 and 7 with Tremble out.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (back) is active for today’s game vs. the Broncos. He’s not a fantasy option but adds risk to TE Ja’Tavion Sanders’ Week 8 fantasy profile. Try to avoid this situation, especially with QB Bryce Young back under center.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (back) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Broncos. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so he figures to play. Tremble played ahead of TE Ja’Tavion Sanders in his last two healthy outings (Weeks 3 and 4). There’s plenty of opportunity available in Carolina’s passing game this weekend with WRs Diontae Johnson and Adam Thielen out. But we’d try to avoid the situation in Week 8 fantasy lineups.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (concussion, back) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Commanders. That should mean a significant role for TE Ja’Tavion Sanders, who caught five of seven targets for 49 yards with Tremble out last week.

Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (concussion, back) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Commanders. It looks like he cleared concussion protocol but missed Friday’s practice with a back issue. Tremble shouldn’t be in your Week 7 fantasy plans, but his absence would turn TE Ja’Tavion Sanders into a viable flier. The rookie caught five of seven targets for 49 yards with Tremble out last week.

Panthers HC Dave Canales said Friday that he expects TE Tommy Tremble (hamstring, back) to play vs. the Chargers this weekend. Tremble missed the opener and is listed as questionable for Week 2. He's not on the fantasy radar, but his return would knock TE Ja'Tavion Sanders off the flier radar.

Panthers TEs Tommy Tremble (hamstring, back) and Ian Thomas (calf) have been ruled out for Sunday's opener vs. the Saints.
