Tremble (shoulder/back) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday's injury report. Tremble didn't appear on Wednesday's injury report (which was a reflection of the Panthers' half-speed practice Tuesday), but it appears he is working through shoulder and back injuries that he might have picked up during Carolina's Week 16 overtime win over Arizona. Tremble's practice participation Friday will indicate his status heading into Sunday's NFC South clash against the Buccaneers. Rookie fourth-round pick Ja'Tavion Sanders would see an increased snap count on offense if Tremble is unable to play Sunday.

Tremble (shoulder/back) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday's injury report. Tremble didn't appear on Wednesday's injury report (which was a reflection of the Panthers' half-speed practice Tuesday), but it appears he is working through shoulder and back injuries that he might have picked up during Carolina's Week 16 overtime win over Arizona. Tremble's practice participation Friday will indicate his status heading into Sunday's NFC South clash against the Buccaneers. Rookie fourth-round pick Ja'Tavion Sanders would see an increased snap count on offense if Tremble is unable to play Sunday.
Tremble caught all three of his targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 36-30 overtime win against the Cardinals. The Notre Dame product appears to have taken over the Panthers' No. 1 tight end role, having outproduced rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders for the third consecutive game in Week 16. Tremble has appeared in 10 games for Carolina this season, tallying 21 receptions for 204 yards and one touchdown. He's expected to remain the Panthers' top TE in the Week 17 matchup against the Buccaneers. However, he'll likely struggle being fantasy relevant without scoring a touchdown.
Tremble caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Cowboys. For the second game in a row, Tremble out-performed rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders, who still leads the Panthers' tight end corps in receptions (29) and yards (302) through 13 appearances this season. Despite Tremble serving as Carolina's top tight end over the last two weeks, he's posted a modest receiving line of 3-18-1. The Notre Dame product will likely continue to struggle to find fantasy relevance, splitting first-team offensive work with Sanders as the Panthers face the Cardinals in Week 16.
Tremble caught one of his two targets for three yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-16 loss to the Eagles. Tremble's lone catch in Sunday's loss was a touchdown, as he hauled in a pass from Bryce Young to give the Panthers a 10-7 lead in the second quarter. The Notre Dame product posted a modest yardage total but still led Carolina's tight-end corps in yards and catches. Meanwhile, rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders returned from a neck injury in Week 14 and failed to haul in his only target. Tremble's performances have been inconsistent throughout the season, and he and Sanders will likely continue to split opportunities as the Panthers' top receiving tight ends moving forward.
Tremble caught five of his eight targets for 77 yards in Sunday's 26-23 overtime loss to the Buccaneers. Before Tremble's impressive performance Sunday, his season highs in catches and yards were three and 29, respectively. The 24-year-old has now appeared in seven games in 2024, catching 15 of his 22 targets for 154 yards. He saw increased opportunities as a pass catcher in the absence of rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders (neck), who leads the Panthers' tight end corps in catches (29) and yards (302) this season. Sanders has a strong chance of remaining sidelined for the Panthers' Week 14 matchup against the Eagles. If so, Tremble will continue to serve as Carolina's No. 1 tight end.
Tremble caught one of his two targets for five yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Chiefs. Despite an increased workload in the second half of Sunday's loss after Ja'Tavion Sanders (neck) exited with an injury, Tremble didn't produce much offensively. The Notre Dame product has now appeared in six games this season, catching 10 of his 14 targets for 77 yards. He could continue to see an expanded offensive role if Sanders is sidelined for the Week 13 matchup against the Buccaneers.
Tremble (back) didn't appear on the Panthers' initial Week 12 injury report released Wednesday. The Notre Dame product has missed four of the Panthers' last five games due to a concussion and a back injury. However, his absence from Carolina's injury report Wednesday suggests that the team's Week 11 bye provided enough time for him to recover from his back issue. With Tremble back to full health, he's expected to work in tandem at tight end with rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders in Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Tremble (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants in Munich, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. Tremble will be sidelined for the fifth time in 10 games on the season, with the back issue causing the last three absences. With Tremble sidelined in Germany, rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders should start at tight end and dominate the playing time after he logged 84 percent of the snaps in a Week 9 win over the Saints and finished with four catches for 87 yards on five targets.
Tremble (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants. Tremble was a full practice participant Wednesday and Friday, sandwiched around a limited session Thursday. He thus seems likely to avoid a fourth absence in five games, but his role may be smaller than what he handled earlier in the season now that rookie tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders has begun to make a name for himself. Tremble's status will be confirmed, one way or another, when the Panthers release their inactive list 90 minutes before the 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff this Sunday in Munich.
