Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Another three-touchdown season
Rotowire
Tremble recorded two catches for 11 yards on two targets in Sunday's 9-0 loss to the Buccaneers.
Tremble appeared in 16 of the Panthers' 17 games during the regular season, finishing with 23 catches for 194 yards and three touchdowns on 32 targets. Even though he saw elevated snaps over the second half of the campaign while Hayden Hurst was out with a concussion, Tremble's receiving production remained strikingly similar to his two prior NFL seasons. The tight end will enter the final season of his rookie contract in 2024 and will look to remain a complementary option in what will hopefully be an improved offense under a new coaching staff.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Hurts back Sunday
Rotowire
Tremble injured his back during Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.
Prior to his exit just before halftime, Tremble had two catches (on two targets) for 11 yards. He thus extended his streak with at least one reception to 11 games, but his cumulative line during that span is just 22-177-3 on 31 targets.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Makes one grab
Rotowire
Tremble caught one of three targets for six yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Jaguars.
Tremble's production marked a decline from consecutive games with 30-plus receiving yards. While his output Sunday was more representative of his usual standard this season, Tremble will nonetheless strive to make a bigger impact in Week 18's finale versus the Buccaneers.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Four grabs in loss
Rotowire
Tremble reeled in four of six targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Packers.
The 59 yards were a season-high total for the third-year tight end. The 23-year-old paced the position group with a 73 percent offensive snap share, while Stephen Sullivan (21 percent) and Ian Thomas (18 percent) ranked a distant second and third in the pecking order, respectively. Tremble is the clear No. 1 tight end in Carolina with Hayden Hurst (concussion) on injured reserve, but even after a solid showing in Week 16, the Notre Dame product doesn't profile as much more than a low-end fantasy option at the position while he's tied to a poor Panthers offense.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Cleared for Sunday
Rotowire
Tremble (illness) isn't listed on the final injury report for Sunday's game against Green Bay.
Tremble dealt with an illness earlier in the week but returned to health by Friday. While yet to see more than three targets in a game this season, he's been getting most of the TE snaps and routes ever since Hayden Hurst suffered a season-ending concussion.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Remains limited Thursday
Rotowire
Tremble (illness) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Tremble sat out Week 13 due to a hip injury, and while the issue followed him into Weeks 14 and 15, he was able to play through it in those contests. This week, his practice reps are being impacted by an illness, so his status will continue to be monitored ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers. As for the Panthers' other tight ends on the active roster, Ian Thomas (ankle) again was limited Thursday, while Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) was a full participant.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Dealing with illness
Rotowire
Tremble was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to an illness.
His ability to practice in any capacity early in the week suggests Tremble isn't in real danger of missing Sunday's matchup with the Packers. Tremble has taken on a larger role in terms of snaps and routes with fellow tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) having missed each of the past five games, but the Notre Dame product still hasn't seen more than three targets in any game this season.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Pair of catches
Rotowire
Tremble caught both of his targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 9-7 win over the Falcons.
Tremble's yardage output marked his best of this season. In fact, over a quarter of the tight end's yardage for the entire campaign came Sunday, underscoring his typically low upside in a poor Panthers passing attack.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Cleared for Sunday
Rotowire
Tremble (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Tremble missed Week 13 but then returned for Week 14 and took 65 percent of snaps on offense in a 28-6 loss to New Orleans. That was actually his smallest snap share since Hayden Hurst entered concussion protocol in early November, and with Hurst now expected to miss the rest of the season, Tremble is locked in as Carolina's top tight end. Ian Thomas (ankle) also will be out this week, but it's worth noting that Tremble has yet to see more than three targets in a game this season even though Carolina's tight end group often has been thinned out by injuries.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Tremble (hip) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.
The Panthers' tight end group remains banged up, as Hayden Hurst (concussion) and Ian Thomas (ankle) didn't practice at all to kick off Week 15 prep. Tremble at least managed some on-field work Wednesday, so he seems to be in the best spot on the health front among the trio, while Stephen Sullivan isn't dealing with an injury at the moment. Tremble's activity level in practices Thursday and Friday should provide a sense of his potential to continue playing through his hip concern, as he did this past Sunday at New Orleans.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Catches a pass
Rotowire
Tremble caught one of three targets for two yards in Sunday's 28-6 loss to the Saints.
Tremble found the stat sheet but barely produced any yardage. Considering he's reached double-digit yardage only four times in 12 games, though, Tremble's Sunday output was close to his usual performance.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Ready to face Saints
Rotowire
Tremble (hip) is active for Sunday's game at New Orleans.
The 23-year-old was considered questionable despite putting in a full practice Friday, so it's not a major surprise he' suiting up for the divisional matchup. No. 1 tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) remains sidelined Sunday, but Tremble has just two catches for 11 yards and a touchdown in two games with Hurst out.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Logs limited session Thursday
Rotowire
Tremble (hip) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
The third-year tight end out of Notre Dame was unable to suit up for Carolina's Week 13 loss to the Buccaneers after not participating in two of the team's practices earlier that week. Tremble's injury designation will be something to look out for going forward, as the Panthers could very well be without both Hayden Hurst (concussion) and Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) in Week 14.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Still hampered by injury
Rotowire
Tremble (hip) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Tremble sat out the Panthers' Week 13 loss to the Buccaneers with the injury and will likely need to upgrade to full practice participation Thursday or Friday to guarantee his availability for Sunday's game against the Saints. Before missing the game against Tampa Bay, Tremble had played more than 70 percent of the offensive snaps in both of the previous two games in the absence of Hayden Hurst (concussion). Hurst joined Tremble as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, so the statuses of both tight ends will be worth tracking as Sunday's contest approaches.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Doubtful for Week 13
Rotowire
Tremble (hip) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
Tremble played more than three-fourths of Carolina's offensive snaps the past two weeks with Hayden Hurst in concussion protocol, only to suffer an injury of his own toward the end of last week's loss to the Titans. With Hurst out again and Tremble also expected to sit, Ian Thomas and Stephen Sullivan are set up to take most of Carolina's tight end snaps. Neither Thomas nor Sullivan has much of a track record of converting playing time into targets, though the same can be said of Tremble.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Limited Thursday
Rotowire
Tremble (hip) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
The third-year tight end seems to be trending in the right direction to play this weekend, as he's gone from logging a DNP at Wednesday's practice to a limited session Thursday. Tremble has appeared in all 11 games for Carolina thus far, catching 13 of his 16 targets for 84 yards and three touchdowns. With Hayden Hurst (concussion) missing his second consecutive practice Thursday, Tremble's status for Sunday's contest will be something to look out for.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Makes two grabs
Rotowire
Tremble caught both of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Dolphins.
Tremble had a highlight play, hurdling an attempted tackle after one of his receptions. With Ian Thomas (calf) sidelined, Tremble faces less competition for snaps behind starting tight end Hayden Hurst, who he was more productive than Sunday. Nonetheless, Tremble's overall stock is lukewarm at best in an underwhelming Panthers passing attack.
